Hi! I’m a huge animal lover, and I’m involved in rescue and have been since I was a child. I’ve always had dogs and cats and I adore them as family members. I am here to take my love of animals and my skill with critters and turn it into a side job that adds joy to my days. Because college freshman and middle schoolers can try me (just kidding!). Over the years, many people have noted how animals take to me, even the most timid or scared for whatever reason trust me more quickly. I am extremely patient, soft spoken, firm when needed, fair- which I believe animals sense and recognize just as much as kids, and I have a presence that people and animals find comforting. I am unafraid of animals and over the years, I have never hesitated to work with even the most scared and aggressive-seeming dogs and cats. I know how to handle such animals, I seem to be able to find and be what they need. All that being said, I’m here to be whatever service provider you need for your pets! Whether someone to walk your dogs, house sit them while you’re away, have a firm conversation with them about not stealing the steaks off the counter (I teach. I’m a firm conversation pro, and sometimes you have to call in someone- takes a village, lol), I can take your cat on dates, or your dog, visiting parks and having special picnics. I’m here to work and make money (teaching is everything! Except lucrative lol) by doing these jobs that bring me joy.
