Hi there,

I am a young 44 yr old woman with a love of all creatures great and small that knows no boundaries.

Animals have been the root of my happiness and comfort my entire life, from the field mice in our family rock garden, to the squirrels and birds sharing food from our feeders, and there myriad of pets i have had since (yes i had an alligator)

Having been a very shy child, i found animals to be non threatening and comforting.

What i love about them is their ability to love and trust unconditionally, and that is what i have always respected and reciprocated. I have worked in the field of social services for ten years, and before that worked with children, which was great. Last year i was able to go to Costa Rica and volunteer at a wild animal rescue (2x2wks). I came back with a whole new perspective on life as a whole andrealized how much i missed animals being a part of that. I wanted to make a change.

So here i am, happy, ready and physically fit (i can keep up with the demands of larger more rambunctious animals as well as the quieter ones!)

Animals bring me to my Zen state- if that makes sense. I don't simply want to walk, water, and feed your pet, i want to connect with this cherished member of your family. I want to create a bond of love and trust that will let your pet know that even if you are gone, there is another who comes who shows love and care and empathy to lessen the feelings of bewilderment, loss and separation. Trust me with your pets and you will know that they are in hands made for caring and heart, for loving.

PS animals are awesome people!!!
