Pet care experience
Cat Mom who Misses her Soul Dog
I adopted my guy Riddick in 2013. Last Thanksgiving, we said goodbye after a rapid decline of suspected lymphoma of the thymus. He was a good fella who kept me company on hikes in the woods, slept and paced with me during my 36-hour labor, laid and watched his baby human nurse for nights on end, and he aged into an easy going, sneaky snack stealing fella. I miss him, and I know I loved caring for him yet I am not in a position to have my own pet - so I want to keep your beloved family furry friend company when they need it most so they’re the best for you! In my time with Riddick, I’ve dealt with 2-3 hour hikes, short walks, yard clean up, oral medication, topical medication, baths and brushing, prescription diets, and more. He was a solid companion for the dogs I’ve fostered for local rescues, as well. I hope my experience will help guide you to make the best decision for your furry friend and family’s needs.

Safety, trust & environment
I care for them the way you need me to, with respect for their demeanors as well. If there are routines needing implemented, we will work on that, if they’re established I will stick to them.

Schedule
I am not actively working full-time, I have an alternating parenting schedule where I have my daughter full time one week and the next her dad has her. I wake up at 4AM everyday for exercise, breakfast, and coffee. I enjoy filming and editing video footage of action sports in the evenings. I am available during school hours the weeks I have my child, and the other week I am available as early as 6AM until about 2-3PM.
