I have had a passion for taking care of animals since I was a child, and I have lots of experience with dogs, cats, and reptiles since childhood. I would love to build a relationship with you and your pet and be there when you need me for years to come. This is my passion and full-time job. I pet sit, walk dogs, hike with dogs, and have a home-like atmosphere for boarding and doggy daycare. I have a large fenced in area, and dogs in doggy daycare are supervised 100% of the time. Dogs who are boarded are put in their crate while left for short outings (not over 4 hours). I pride myself in giving lots of photo updates and keeping your animals safe. I am insured through Pet Sitters Associates and am certified in pet CPR and first aid. When I pet sit, I keep your house pristine, and you can count on me to be there if we schedule a visit or pet sit. I am dependable, trustworthy, and responsible. I like to keep animals in their regular routine while you are away. For dogs, that means regular walks, runs, whatever they are used to doing with you is what I want to give them while you are away. I give your pets the love and attention they deserve. I also check the mail, bring in packages, water plants and gardens, and shut on/off lights if requested. I am a non-smoker with a clean background who is drug free (former teacher). Meet and greets are available and free.
