I can’t help but feel my inner dog mom kick in when I hear someone say, "I’ll walk your dog and play tug-of-war with them!" And in the back of my mind, I’m thinking, "Okay, but are you ready to throw yourself in front of a squirrel for them?!" Lol. But seriously, my instincts to protect and nurture animals under my care runs very deep. When your pet is with me, I’ll treat them with the same care and devotion I’d want for my own. I was blessed to be the mom of a miniature pinscher named Oakley. I cared for him as his full time mommy for the last 8 years of his life. In his final year, I was on constant alert, monitoring his breathing, fine tuning his diet, researching everything I could and working with vets to adjust his medications as his needs changed. He was my everything, and the thought of trusting someone else with his care, especially toward the end was terrifying. And I know I’m not the only one who feels that way about their pet. If you’re nervous about leaving your fur baby with someone new, I get it. But I hope sharing a little of my story reassures you that I don’t take this responsibility lightly. If your pet has special needs, you can trust that I’ll provide patient, attentive care. I know from experience that even the smallest details can make a big difference. I will never judge you for asking me to pay close attention to things that might seem unimportant to the average person. I will listen and do my absolute best to provide the best care possible. I follow instructions to the letter, take notes, and will go the extra mile to make sure your pet is safe, happy, and cared for. Need picture updates? Texts? Calls? No problem, I want you to feel just as at ease as your pet. They are our loved ones, and they deserve nothing less than the very best care and compassion. I’m down to earth, calm and easy-going, but also incredibly reliable. I have cared for pets all my life including dogs, cats and guinea pigs! I am comfortable around all pets and have been told on multiple occasions that I bring a calming presence to a home and that animals have a tendency to feel comfortable and safe around me.
