I'm a UVA student who has been caring for dogs, cats, and reptiles in my own home for over a decade. Professionally, I've provided short- and long-term care for dogs, cats, horses, chickens, lizards, turtles, and rodents, so I have extensive experience and I'm up for just about any animal care challenge! I'm back home in the Richmond/Henrico area, and for the duration of my work, your pet(s) will be my top priority. I love walking and hiking, and I have extensive dog-walking experience, including with large dogs and dogs whose temperament makes them challenging to walk. I take a patient approach with pets whenever possible, and safety is my priority.
