Pet care experience

Experience, love and patience

I am very responsible and patient, comfortable with dogs of any breed and cats. I work in the animal industry and love it. I will follow instructions so that they won’t know you are gone, I’m comfortable giving meds if needed. I have fostered multiple breeds of dogs thru the City animal shelter, giving the pets a second chance. I am an owner of 2 labradors and 2 tabby cats. If you have any questions feel free to contact me.

Thelma was amazing. Our dog Phoenix is not the easiest dog to deal with, but she got along wonderfully with her. Phoenix was walked, fed on schedule, and treated like a queen. Thelma is 100% trustworthy and timely. Many pictures were posted and we knew Phoenix was getting the best of care. 10/10 highly recommended.
