Growing up with outside dogs was great. I vastly improved my pet owning skills when I got my first indoor dog, and I haven't turned back. I have had some training in dog and cat CPR. Able to lift 80 lbs+ if your pet needs to be carried due to injury. I have my own vehicle in case of medical emergency. Available Friday evening, 6am - 6pm weekends, and overnight weekends. Pets are part of the family and deserve interaction, stimulation, and exercise just like the 2 legged members of the family. I enjoy learning about what works best for each furry friend to live their life to the fullest. When I'm not working at Trupanion, helping policyholders navigate claims for their furry family members I spend time with my family or volunteer at the Tacoma Humane Society.
