About Me: Assisting others is an innate quality, a deep love for all animals started at day one. Growing up I did not understand the word "No" to be a reasonable answer when an animal was concerned. I've lived with and cared for the tame and the wild. the great and the small, no matter if they are feathered, furry, slimy or scaled, i have never met one that did not steal my heart. Shepards and Poodles, many mutts in-between, a few liters of kittens and puppies, cockatiels...conures, hamsters and rabbits, chameleons, geckos, and green water dragons all types of fish, fresh to salt water, Even a goat and a few blue belly lizards… Horses! Every chance I can. As a volunteer for the Wildlife Care Network, I nursed many of my favorite seabirds; Night Herons, Cormorants and Pelicans released back to the wild after receiving medical assistance. I welcomed the opportunities to house others; one of my favorites, who I named 'Kramer', was a baby gray tree squirrel who had sadly lost his mother, and then there was one-winged raven who loved to cuss. My favorite dog spots are the Douglas Preserve, Thousand Steps Beach and if a warm bath is due, Hendry’s is the place to go. Snuggles and treats upon return. Snapping lots of pictures is a compulsion of mine. In my experience, pets feel most comfortable being near home, especially at night when you are gone. I am happy to take your dog to my house to play with my dogs if you like at times during the day, as well as adventures that best suit your pet, but find that returning, especially at night, makes them most comfortable in the time of your absence. I want my clients to feel happy and relieved when they come home, everything clean and taken care of. I am happy to customize this experience, ie. make sure there is fresh cream in the fridge.
