I'm a 20-something grad student with a lifetime of animal love and experience! I'm very patient and energetic, and understand that each animal has their own unique personality and needs, and I love getting to know each pet. It's the only way to make sure they are getting the care and attention that they really need! I have experience caring for disabled, athletic, old, and young dogs. My first dog, Dixie, was a black lab who slowly lost use of her back legs, and required extra help and love. I am also well-versed in the art of getting a cat to take their medicine! Dogs and cats are more than just our pets- they are family, and rely on us for so much. I strongly believe in making them as happy, healthy, and safe as we can, and I value open communication to ensure that I am doing just that for every client.
