Caring for animals has always been one of the greatest joys in my life. Over the years I've looked after dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and fish - and I've genuinely loved every minute of it. Now that I'm recently retired, ( I retired a few years early) I finally have the time to do what I've always wanted to do; dedicate my days to helping pets feel happy, safe, and understood. I volunteered at SICSA and completed classes focused on both cat and dog care, giving me a strong foundation and animal behavior, safety, and enrichment. I also share my home with a 5-year-old German Shepherd and have worked closely with a professional trainer picking up many effective training techniques along the way. Patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement are at the heart of how I interact with every animal. Whether your pet needs a midday break, a walk to burn off energy, or simply some company while you're away, I'm here to help. My goal is to give your pet a great day - and give you peace of mind knowing they're in caring, capable hands.
