“Care and Compassion for your Pet”

Since a child I had a love and passion for all animals. Neighbors , friends and family members have relied on me to walk and watch their fur babies while they were away or just to come over to spend time. I find joy caring and loving all animals . The same way your fur baby will bring me joy my duty is to always make your fur baby feel safe and comfortable your fur baby will always have a good time with me and will come home happy. “Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened.”By anonymous

Shirley was a great cat sitter - very friendly, flexible, and communicative. We will definitely ask her to watch the cats again in the future!

A typical day

Teach your dog a new trick. Let them watch the world go by this involves finding a safe place when your dog can enjoy its surroundings. Rotate your dog’s toys , go for a brisk walk around the park or in a safe neighborhood in the community which your dog is comfortable in however I can always go at your dogs pace. Playing tug of war Tug of war is a great indoor game that doesn’t require much space.
