Hi there! My name is Hope and I was blessed to be raised in a family with a variety of critters. Since a young age, my parents instilled a deep appreciation and respect for animals and the care that they each need. We have always considered our pets to be just as important members of our family as the humans. I highly value animals and, especially, adore dogs. My parents just adopted a new puppy this past year to accompany our senior dog. I am a former Chicago kindergarten teacher who is transitioning into California and looking for some extra work that includes my furry friends! I also tutor and nanny and am comfortable traveling to meet your pet’s needs. I have a rather flexible schedule right now and am open to any care involving cats or dogs. Thank you!
