Hello, Pet Parents! 👋 ​I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by animals—from farm cats in my childhood to training our family puppy for agility competitions in my teens. Animals aren’t just a hobby for me; they are my passion. While in university, I dedicated my time to volunteering at the SPCA, helping rehabilitate and comfort large, fearful dogs. ​Today, my home is filled with love from our two cats—including my 17-year-old senior orange tabby, Naranjito—and our family dog. ​Why Choose Me? ​Through years of personal pet ownership and professional pet sitting (including dogs, cats, and birds), I have developed a comfort level with specialized medical care: ​Senior Care: Understanding the gentle pace and extra patience older pets need. ​Injectable Medications & Testing: Experienced with diabetic care, including blood tests and insulin injections. ​Special Needs & Emergency Calm: Capable of managing complex conditions like canine epilepsy and severe allergies, ensuring your pet is comforted and safe during vulnerable moments. ​Whether your furry family member needs an energetic walk, a cozy cuddle, or attentive medical monitoring, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I can’t wait to meet yours!
