Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets of all personalities and energy levels. I got my dog when I was 5 years old and he was truly my best friend for 17 years. Ever since then, dogs have always been a huge part of my life. After moving from Minnesota to California, I had the opportunity to work on the TV show Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan and it’s still one of the best jobs I’ve ever had! Being around dogs every day only deepened my appreciation for how unique and special they are. When I got engaged, my then roommate surprised me with a puppy party Bridal Shower! She knew I didn’t want anything traditional so when I walked into our apartment and there were puppies running all over the kitchen, I almost died of happiness! These days, I’m building my own genealogy research business and looking to spend more time caring for animals again through dog walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. While I’ve always been a dog person, many of my friends have cats, so I’ve grown into a cat lover too! I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and genuinely happy around animals. Whether your pet needs a walk, play time, or just someone caring to check in on them, I’d love to help.
