Pet care experience

I love animals

Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 25 years of experience caring for pets of all kinds. I’ve done everything from house sitting for friends and neighbors to volunteering with foster homes and rescue centers, and I’ve even worked with veterinary offices, helping with check-ups and sharing pet care knowledge with my community. I know how hard it is to leave your pet with someone new. My goal is simple: to give your animal the same love, attention, and care I’d want for my own. I’d love to meet you and your furry family member!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize understanding each client’s specific needs and requirements for their pet’s care. I’m patient, kind, and attentive to every detail — going well beyond a standard visit to ensure your pet receives genuine interaction and personalized attention. I make it my responsibility to keep your pet safe and secure throughout my visit, and to leave everything in order so your animal is comfortable and cared for until we meet again.
