Safe Haven For Your Furry Friend!

What sets me apart is that I have 15 years of animal experience. I currently work for Animal Control and have been for 5 years. Working with different kind of animals, their behaviors and sizes have given me the experience I never knew I needed. It's taught me patience, to be attentive to small detail and that EVERY animal is different. My love for animals can't be described! I have cared for animals in many different situations; hoarding cases, animal cruelty, severely malnourished and injured. My experience and love for Furbabies will keep your mind at ease while you enjoy your day!

Jawanza has always been great with pets since we met back in high school. He would come over and watch my dogs if my family were to go out of town for a trip. When my dogs see him, they always run up to him, jumping on his leg. Last year, I called Jawanza about a stray dog. As an animal control officer, he showed care to the dog while catching him and making sure he was okay before placing him in his truck. I've known Jawanza for over 10 years and can proudly say he is responsible and caring when it comes to animals!

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in my home and/or client's home by giving the Furbabies lots of attention, going for long walks and providing their basic necessities as well as medication or baths if needed.

A typical day

With the pets that I watch, we'll go to a large open field down from my home and run, play with toys and possibly get a pup cup after if their parents allow me to.
