I have always had a passion for animals, and I have owned and been around dogs and cats all my life. Growing up, I didn’t watch princess movies. I watched Dr. Dolittle and Babe. I love animals of all kinds, shapes, and sizes. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and small and large animals, including some livestock experience. I spent several years in 4-H Poultry, Animal Science, Dog Obedience, and Veterinary Medicine. I spent over a year volunteering at the Humane Society, helped out at every vet clinic that allowed me, and spent nearly two years working for a dog breeder, where I helped whelp puppies, cleaned kennels, trained puppies, bathed and groomed dogs, went on vet visits, and helped stage puppies for pictures each week. I have worked at several doggy daycare and boarding facilities where my main jobs were to maintain a calm, stress-free environment so that boarders felt loved while their owners were away, and to supervise group play so the dogs could get their energy out while still interacting safely with me and their friends. I love the unconditional joy that animals can bring and it’s so important that our fur babies stay safe and happy! I have 3 rescue dogs who are friendly with everyone they meet. I also have two young children at home so it’s important to ask me my availability with as much notice as possible. I enjoy spending time getting to know each of your animals personally and will give them the very best quality of care.
