About: I’m recently retired and home much of the time. I live in the Golden Beach community. I have three dogs of my own ranging an age from one to almost 17.

In addition to my pets, I am a grandmother of six and love, taking care of pets and babies. I am also trained in mental health first aid and in crisis peer support so I take safety very seriously.

“Our pups have always enjoyed staying at Doris' home! She treats them just like they were her own. They always have a spot saved right next to her on the couch. Our pups also love to run around on the farm and pretend they are herding the farm animals. 😊 I don't trust anyone with my babies so to be able to go on vacation and not worry about them being well taken care of and loved is such a relief for me!”
