My love for animals started very young. I grew up with cats, dogs and turtles and I loved every moment. Later when I moved out on my own, my first pet was a cat I got from a local shelter. She was a gorgeous tortie who literally poked her paw out as if to say, "take me!" Well, I did. Over the years, I had many other cats and while they have left this earth, they have left their paw prints on my heart and soul. A couple of years ago, I started volunteering with a local cat rescue group as I wanted to be more involved with helping to save homeless, abandoned, and abused cats. Then one day, my group posted they needed a foster for 4 little kittens immediately or they were to be euthanized. Well, after some convincing of my boyfriend, we agreed to take them in. Needless to say I was hooked on fostering. We adopted two of the four and have never looked back. This is where my passion for animals really took hold. I was a massage therapist for a few years but after going through joint and back pain, I decided I needed a career change. A lot of my friends had said that I should start a pet sitting business since I loved animals so much and in September of 2014 I did. I quit my job, ordered my business cards and got insurance! My services are tailored to your pets' needs and I can usually accommodate anything. My fee is for per visit no matter how many pets and are for 30 minutes each. I also offer daily dog walks, pet food/supply pick ups, poop pick up in the yard, and a pet taxi service for cats or any small animal that can travel in a carrier. I have a business page on Facebook that gives reviews and daily posts that are informative and sometimes just down right cute. I will treat your pet just as if they were my own and will always give my clients updates while they are in my care. I can text, email and/or send pictures of your precious pets so my clients always know that I have been to see their pets. I offer quick potty breaks just in case you are working late or have a meeting after work that is unavoidable. And I offer visits if you would just like some exercise or interaction with your pet while you are at work. I am here to make you and your pet's life as stress-free as possible because I want to be your Pet Pawtner!
