I have always had a great love of animals. I have 15+ years experience caring for all types of animals from domestic to exotic. Some of the wonderful pets that I have shared my life with and/or cared for are dogs, cats, horses, fish, squirrels, turtles, rabbits, mice, and hamsters. In addition, I have had several special needs dogs so I know how important it is to provide that extra care and attention. Having a routine is very important as well. Here are a few things about me that I would like to share - I have been an avid runner for the past ten years and am presently training for my first half marathon. I am an ex-law enforcement officer and am currently a licensed private investigator. I thoroughly enjoy spending my down time with my two best friends, Marlon, a six year old Doberman Pinscher and Boz, a five year old Border Terrier. Quite honestly, I just enjoy being around animals, period! I am also an avid animal advocate. I have shared most of my life with animals and have acquired many of my pets through rescues. There has not been a point in my life where I have not had a pet as a companion. They enrich my life tremendously, are incredibly smart, loyal, loving, funny, and I cannot imagine what my life would be like without them. I take the very best care of my family and will treat yours with the same loving affection. If you are looking for a trustworthy and reliable dog walker or sitter that will lovingly care for your pets, take them for a long run or leisurely walk, or keep them company while you are away for business or pleasure, look no further. **Kisses and belly rubs are included.
