Hi! I'm so glad you're here. I've loved animals for as long as I can remember and grew up surrounded by dogs, spending my childhood and college years caring for and loving on them. Over the years, I've gained experience dog sitting for family, friends, and Rover clients, and I truly have loved every opportunity to do so. Walks are a staple of my own daily routine with our rescued Goldendoodle, who joined our family nearly two years ago and has been the most rewarding journey. Outside of pet care, I've been married for two years and am currently in the second year of my Master's in Clinical Counseling. My hybrid and flexible class schedule allows me to provide dependable, quality care, and I'm grateful that this season of life has brought me back to Rover to support families and their animals who bring so much joy. I will always do my best to make sure your pets receive all the love and attention they can get while you are away. I can also provide some light grooming by chance the pets get dirty and need a bath, or just brushing them to make sure they don't get matted! I have also taken care of birds and other small house pets (guinea pigs, goldfish, etc.) and am happy to support in this way.
