I have been an animal lover my entire life... I am a self proclaimed crazy dog lady and dog Mom of my black lab, Bastian. Bastian is my whole world and I have the highest standard for the care that is provided to him when I am on vacation. Its because of my own expectations, that I understand the level of care pet lovers want to be provided to their fur babies. I also understand that leaving your pets behind with a care giver can be tough, which is why I go above and beyond to help make you feel secure and comfortable. I have a lifetime of experience caring for dogs of all ages and behavior types. I am looking forward to working with you to come up what is is the perfect dog walk, sitting, or home visit solution for you and your family (pets included!). Full time, I am an energy consultant, and 80% of the time I am working remotely. This gives me the ability to have total control of my schedule and provide 24/7 care, if needed. Depending on the needs of your pet, I can bunker down and spend the day with them or be in complete control of accommodating the times that you would like me to be at your home. I have been dog sitting since I was in college. I continued to help out friends and family members, but took a break during the years that I worked at Tesla. Since then I have transitioned and have found the opportunity to explore other things I love, such as sponsoring events at local animal shelters, volunteering with the Sierra Club, and of course...watching the beloved animals of the neighborhood. I love watching animals because I think that they are amazing. They are always so full of joy, love, and as we both know, they more than earn their place in our homes by continually warming our hearts and making us laugh. Please message me with any additional questions that you may have! I am looking forward to speaking with you and meeting your pet!
