Since I can remember, animals have always been the biggest part of my life. I've never met an animal who I didn't immediately love! I am that person who makes silly noises and baby talk at puppies, and I always point out a dog when I see one, because they never fail to make me smile. I have a vast amount of experience in the pet care industries, from a vet assistant and tech, to the kennel manager of pet store, and most recently and currently as a volunteer coordinator with the SPCA. I pride myself on having a spiritually profound connection with animals that truly helps me to understand their needs. I am CPR certified and I always carry a pet first aid kit, along with allergy friendly treats, a spare leash, and lots of poop bags. My goal is to give you and your pet a positive, stress-free experience that they will look forward to (almost as much as they look forward to having you home). In addition to the basic pet care for dogs and cats, dog walking, and house sitting services offered, customer service is of the utmost importance to me. I will always do absolutely everything in my power to accommodate requests made on short notice, emergencies, extended sitting stays, and even some holidays. I also offer the following amenities which can be added onto any existing pet service; light house cleaning, laundry, basic dog grooming, and basic dog training (these services are separate from Rover and do not appear as options, please inquire directly). I am also happy to accommodate my services for other pets, and have extensive experience with rabbits, rats, birds, tortoises, turtles, fish, pigs, and horses.
