I'm an artist and movement educator with a flexible schedule and a love for animals. I see every non-human being as kin, and genuinely enjoy connecting, learning, and being with them. Many years of pet sitting for family, friends, and co-workers has given the baseline skills of walking, feeding, giving meds, and most importantly...keeping up with the pet-parent pics! My pup Eiko--a beautiful malamute and collie mix--whom we adopted at just 6 weeks old-- recently passed away at the age of 13. She was my best friend and also my biggest teacher, with the kindest heart, funniest quirks....and so many health problems. I feel comfortable with elderly pets, medications, tending, and mobility support--I know how important this was for me in finding sitters for Eiko. While my partner was a dog sitter while we lived in another state, I enjoyed meeting and getting to know all of the pups that stayed at our home. I soon fell in love with all different breeds and temperaments, and looked forward to their visits for playtime and cuddles. Now that my schedule is flexible, I'd love to spend my free time caring for your fur-babies!
