When I was a kid I convinced my mom to let us keep the stray cat that kept coming around, and now, many years later, my family has twice as many animals as people. I've worked in animal rescue, done trap-neuter-release, cared for a colony of feral cats for a decade, and fostered more kittens and adult cats than I can count. I have four cats of my own now. I must say hello to ever dog I meet from Teacup Chihuahuas to Great Danes. I created my own hiking group so walking is something I greatly enjoy, and walking with a dog is even better. I can take care of your dogs at your home, walk them in your neighborhood, or I have a comfortable room in my house where they can stay as long as it isn't already occupied by a litter of kittens. Cats are my first love but dogs are a very close second. I am a nature and wildlife photographer so I have gotten to know, to one degree or the other, all of the animals around my home, which, I believe, helps to make me comfortable with all types of pets. I also offer pet portraits! I have experience with all of the usual pets, plus a few unusual ones too. I will take good care of your dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, small animals and even tarantulas or insects. I will treat your pets as if they were my own and I will let you know how the visits are going. Your pets will be safe and well cared for with me.
