Hi fur baby parents, At my day job I am a working professional and by evening and weekends, I am a nurturing and avid animal lover, who enjoys being around all kitties and pooches. I grew up having pets and have carried that love into adulthood. Outside of having my own fur babies, I have fostered and taken care of friend’s and family’s pets as well. I lost my partner in life, Blew (the handsome grey fellow in my pictures), to cancer. During his fight I held his paw through weekly chemo appointments, numerous emergency room visits, taking his medications and feeling just crappy. Blew also had to battle heart worms and kennel cough but he was a champ through it all. ❤️ Although it was one of the toughest times in my life it has given me experience, skills and empathy from personal experience to care and nurture those that need a little extra time, love and TLC. I work Monday-Friday 8:00-5:00 but I’m available for walks anytime after five and on weekends or 24/7 for in home stays. I take one client at a time so all my attention will be focused on your baby! I am college educated, own my own home and live in a nice, quiet community in Carrollwood with a park, a field for running and playing, and walking trails. It’s a fifteen minute ride to Tampa International so it’s a convenient drop off for those flying out of town. I have two older children that live at home, 18 and 16, who adore animals as much as I do. *Warning: your fur baby may receive 3 x’s the love and attention! Based on your comfortability, I will not just “sit” with your fur baby I will spend quality time with him or her. Long walks on the beach, going to the park, hiking, trip to Starbucks for a puppuccino or snuggling while netflixing on the couch. I prefer to be active and spend time outdoors but we can spend time lounging in the backyard if your dog prefers to stay home and chill. I will accommodate and abide by each individual dog’s schedule, rules and guidelines but I will also spoil him/her, if you allow it :). I believe pets are truly part of the family. All cats/dogs welcome! Big, little, old, young, furry and hairless!
