I have a deep respect and love of animals, with years of in-home and dog-sitting experience for friends and family—sometimes for weeks at a time. People tell me that I have the magic touch, even with pets who typically don’t take well to new people. I’m 6’2 and happy to take care of larger dogs or more finicky pets—I don’t scare easily! As for my own pets, I’ve co-raised a puppy, and taken in several cats in my life. I am an avid walker and hiker, so happy to do more vigorous walks if you prefer, in the hills and canyons. For home care, I always leave a place better than I found it. I’m an older music student at CalArts, and my schedule is broken up well to accommodate intermittent care. I’m happy to accommodate specific needs you may have. Please feel free to reach out with any questions.
