I have 30 years of experience as a social worker and have always had tremendous passion and love for not only those in need but also animals. I currently work part time in social work. My husband and I often work from home. I grew up in a house with numerous pets, often bringing home injured animals to help. As an adult, I have always had at least one dogs, at times two dogs as well as a cat and guinea pig. Years ago we had a dog who was diagnosed with a serious lung condition at an early age. We spent tremendous time and resources for many years to assure the best care and life for our little one. My husband and I have an adorable dog and cat. Our dog is a very sweet 5 year old cocker spaniel who loves people and other dogs. Our cat is elderly and likes to sleep! If I stay at your home, I will not be bringing my dog. He will stay with my husband. Whether in my home or yours, I will care for your animals like I do my own. I’m used to my animals sleeping in bed with me, but will follow the rules you have set for your animals. My own dog is very energetic so we take him for many long walks daily. I am happy to do the same for yourself dog if he/she likes lots of exercise! I am very honest, ethical, caring and compassionate. I look forward to meeting the special animals in your life.
