I am a passionate dog lover with over 18 years experience training, grooming and care taking for many animal species. I truly believe that animals are a part of us (a soul is a soul is a soul is a soul) and illuminate our spirits with joy! Having my own pet sitting business for many years, I strive to fulfill my passion by caring for these gentle spirited creatures amongst us. I have a very calm household, with two dogs of my own, both rescued almost 10 years ago. Over the years, I've come to realize that my business is about much more than keeping your pet happy; it's about helping them enjoy their lives, and by doing so, bringing more joy to mine. About this sitter: I have been a passionate animal lover for over 16 years now. I have volunteered at numerous animal shelters and fostered many dogs while volunteering. I have worked in grooming, boarding, and training facilities in the past and have also attended Veterinary Technology school. Dogs are my passion and I truly believe they bring genuine joy to our souls! Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover since I was a little girl. Born into a family of animal lovers/dog owners, I was raised around an expansive variety of breeds. My pool of knowledge gained environmentally (my aunt is a professional dog trainer) aided my growth and development in Vet Tech school. Dogs are genuinely a true passion of mine. I would be lost without them. About my yard I have a completely fenced in backyard and live on a low traffic residential street. It is a grass yard with plenty of room to run and play, traditional landscaping, and garden.
