I'm an animal-lover with professional experience as an animal care provider at Capital Humane Society and as a pet sitter. I now work a 9-5 in the Department of Developmental Disabilities and pet sit on the side. I am also a foster through a local rescue, and enjoy providing a loving home for special needs dogs and bottle baby kittens until they find their forever families. At CHS, I was responsible for feeding, medicating, walking, bathing, cleaning up after, and loving every animal in the shelter’s care. I worked with everything from 120 pound Rottweilers to the smallest baby mice. I have unique experience caring for juvenile, elder, and special needs pets. Whether you're looking for high-energy playtimes for your running companion, or just some mental stimulation and love as your old friend rests his rickety bones, I can handle it all with expert-level care and a big heart. I'm happy to provide exercise, medication, dietary management, and companionship. I never discriminate because of breed, age, or special need. I have a diabetic cat of my own, and understand the added financial burden of finding pet care for a sick or special-needs pet. I don’t charge more if your animal needs medications (with the exception of animals who require substantially more time to medicate than a 30 minute drop-in visit allows.) I also have a rabbit and fish. If you have a multi-species household, you can be confident that I am prepared to handle it all. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends!
