Growing up I helped my mom take care of dozens of foster dogs (including some with special needs) with the Hawaii Dog Foundation before deciding to adopt two of our own, Sammy and Li'i. Both were with me until the ages of 9 and 14 years old (lost due to cancer). My love of animals continued into my teenage years when I started volunteering for the Hawaiian Humane Society and later started a job as a Kennel Attendant for a local boarding facility. During this time I also had two rabbits and took care of stray cats within the community. Fast forward to now, I have one dog and three cats - all of which were adopted. Blue, a 2 year old Border Collie mix, has helped me serve as a foster home for dogs with Fur Angel Foundation and later a foster home for cats with the Hawaiian Humane Society. I (including Blue!) ended up falling in love with two of the cats fostered and they officially became foster fails in the summer of 2022. Our third cat became an official foster fail in the summer of 2023. I love all animals and have experience working with many different species, breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I'm also open to working with pets with behavioral issues on a case-by-case basis. Whether you plan to board with me or are just seeking some drop-in services, I will treat every fur baby as one of my own and strive to provide them the best experience while you are away!
