Snce retiring in 2020 I have been focusing on doing the things I love, caring for animals, gardening and enjoying nature. I have a 3 year old food forest in my yard. If you have a garden or even houseplants, they will receive the same love and care that I will give your pets. I volunteer with friends of the pelican, rescue and over the years I have fostered cats, dogs and kittens with ACC in NYC and PCAS in Largo. I also volunteered as a goat nanny in Oldsmar. I have experience pet sitting with Trusted House Sitters and have cared for friends’ pets in their homes. I’ve owned and have been a foster mom to dogs of all sizes from a senior chihuahua to a young 85 pound pit bull, and from 2 weeks old kittens to seniors cats. I have had pets since I was 7 years old and when my kids were young they always had a variety of pets including gerbils, mice, guinea pigs, rats, snakes, lizards and of course we always had cats, dogs and chickens. My heart dogs were a Shepard poodle mix, a pit bull mix and an American bully. They lived to be seniors and I’m experienced with giving medication and the special care that seniors need. I’m not a dog trainer but I did participate in a program where I was trained to train shelter dogs to make them more adoptable. I have experience with dogs who are dog aggressive, and will avoid other dogs when on walks.
