Schedule

I'm retired and caring for pets is absolutely my favorite way to spend all this available time. When I'm not caring for someone's pets directly, I volunteer at shelters and rescues. I am available to care for your pet(s) full time.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large, fenced yard with plenty of shade, and pet beds, blankets, and even cat trees in the house. I don't currently have any pets of my own in my home, and I am able to care for your pet in my home if desired. I am a retired police officer and can be trusted to give your pet(s) the very best care in your home, if desired. I have several years of experience administering medication to pets as well.

A typical day

Depending on what your pet enjoys doing for fun, we can stroll around the neighborhood (and say hi to other pets if desired), hike through the woods or run around and play in the large, fenced yard. I also have cat trees and cat toys as well.
