Excited to be trying rover out! Brand new on this app. I’m a life long dog lover and grew up with Golden Retrievers. As a child and teenager, I would envision living near the beach in Florida with a healthy and active lifestyle surrounded by dogs, so made it happen. My first job in high school was at a Veterinary Clinic in Hopewell, NJ. After high school I attended West Virginia University for two years. Being away at college made me miss my dogs too much, and I found class too boring to sit still through. In 2012 I came home from school and got a job at St.Hubert’s Animal Welfare Center in North Branch, NJ. That was a life changing experience and gave me a soft spot for shelter dogs but most of all Pit Bulls and senior dogs. I also gained experience with training and behavior modification. During that time I adopted my soul dog Binx , an American Staffordshire Terrier, and my 20lb black cat, Mr.Ruger. After moving to Florida in 2013 I worked at Love My Dog Resort in St.Petersburg while fostering and volunteering for Passion4Pits rescue. In 2019 I began calling Volusia County home. I worked as a personal trainer and physical therapy aide while living in a condo. After moving into a house beachside in Ormond with a fully fenced yard in 2026, I am fulfilling my top passion- caring for animals! The best part about being a pet sitter is getting to borrow and experience all of the different breeds and personality quirks. From Chihuahuas to Rottweilers, to Pits and Poodles, I loves ‘em all! I also loves cats and coincidentally moved into a cat colony she cares for outside. I know pets are family (often better), and should be treated accordingly. I will treat your fur babies as if they’re her own, and probably give them a new nickname or make up a song about them during their stay. I am experienced with all demographics of dogs (even Hurricane Katrina survivors) and comfortable with all breeds and personalities. I boards dogs in my home, offers in home pet sitting, drop in’s for walks (or runs!) and companionship.
