Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 20 years of hands-on pet care experience, including over 8 years as a professional pet sitter and dog walker with Achilles Total Pet Care, LLC. I’ve worked with dogs of every size, breed, and personality, including rescues, seniors and pups with special needs. My passion for animals started in 2004 when we adopted our first dog, Amber, who had never even been on a leash. We trained her from the ground up and she changed my life. From 2007 to 2009, I volunteered at the Voorhees Animal Orphanage doing community outreach, dog walking and was part of the "Pit Partners" program focusing on pit bull type breeds, many of whom needed extra exercise, patience, structure, and love. Since then, I’ve continued to dedicate my time and heart to helping dogs thrive. I also have over 15 years personal experience caring for our special needs dog, Max, who has severe environmental and food allergies, anxiety, and needs daily medication and ongoing management. I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet—and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m known for providing loving, dependable, and individualized care, whether it’s a long walk, playtime, medication, or just keeping your pet safe and happy while you’re away from home. My clients become like family—because their pets already are. ❤️ Let’s connect—I’d love to meet your furry family member!
