Safety + Top Notch Care

I came into the world an animal caretaker. There’s never been a moment in my life when I wasn’t surrounded by animals. The wellbeing of your animal family is my number one duty. There will be plenty of playtime and snuggles too! I am a former 911 Dispatcher. I have also run an organic farm. This unique combination means 100% peace of mind for you while you are away from home. You can rest assured that your animals are receiving great care and that your home will be secure and respected. I have experience with every kind of animal people share their lives with. I have been an animal momma to dogs, cats, parrots, rodents, lizards, chickens, large fowl, cows, horses, rabbits, etc. My experience includes all age ranges, numerous health conditions, and giving supplements and medications. I will follow detailed instructions to the letter to ensure the very best care and no accidents. If I ever have ANY doubt or need clarification, I will contact you BEFORE acting. If I encounter an emergency or urgent situation, you will be the first to know so long as no emergency response is required first. Nothing will be hidden from you and you won’t come home to any unexpected surprises or situations. At my last visit of longer duration care I will give a status update and pictures. Puppies and kittens are no problem at all for me to watch. From pregnant mommas to newborns, I can confidently care for all their needs. I am an active Humane Society volunteer and support numerous animal rescue and welfare organizations as I am able. COMMUNICATION IS MY SPECIALTY! I will always respond promptly and clearly. Never hesitate to contact me or feel like you are inconveniencing or bothering me. This is your loved one and you are putting immense trust in me. I don’t take that lightly. Photos will always be sent so you can see what fun we’ve been up to. I am more than happy to do a meet and greet first. Thank you for considering me and I can’t wait to make new friends with you and your critter crew.

Safety, trust & environment

Your animals will always be given thorough care. I will be there for the time you are investing in with hands on attention. They will never be yelled at, yanked, or treated cruelly. I am responsive, gentle, and patient. Your home is your sanctuary and I will treat it with respect according to your wishes. Please clearly define which areas are open to be in and any you want to remain closed or private. Your personal property will only be handled/used as appropriate to the job. If I can’t find something, I will ask you.

Schedule

I work from home as an herbalist and sell flower essences online. My schedule is completely my own and flexible. I can usually accommodate most requests with prior notice. I’m happy to accept last minute requests. I will never cancel on you short of an actual emergency with as much notice as possible.

The more specific instructions and personality details you can provide me the better. Please provide very specific medical instructions as well as any possible advice for your animal’s typical behavior around new people.
