I was born and raised on a farm in New England and have cared for animals my entire life, including livestock, foul, exotic birds, reptiles, dogs and cats. I'm trustworthy, knowledgeable and passionately devoted to the well being of all of God's creatures. I will lovingly care for your pets as if they were my own. In the past year, I traveled to California and spent several months providing intensive care to a dog who required post-surgical rehabilitation, so I am open to all possible scenarios. I've had many years experience on the racetrack working with high-strung thoroughbreds, so big dogs are not a problem. I love cats! My own home has always been full of a variety of pets that are as precious to me as any other member of the family and I know how stressful it can be when you have to leave them in anyone else's care. My sincere desire is to provide the same peace of mind to a client that I would require in that situation.
