About

My company is here to help bring peace of mind to pet owners whose lives don't always coincide with the needs of their pets. I know first hand the stress and worry that is involved in being separated from your pets. In my case, I had some prettyheadstrong dogs (four at one time) who needed an alpha leader and one that had epilepsy who needed medication on a very strict schedule, so leaving neighbors, friends or family members in charge was no small request and since my pets are like children to me, I needed someone I could count on no matter what. Boarding didn't usually work too well because transporting four dogs to and from the kennel was a serious endeavor and a considerable expense, plus, I had one dog who was part wolf and she not only needed a professional handling her, but she hated being left and would stand on her hind feet and howl and cry as we drove all the way out of the kennel's long drive. We never knew if she stopped when we were out of sight. And then there was all the stress of being around so much barking and the potential for disease. After countless trips of feeling uneasy, I finally became wise to the idea of a pet sitter. From that moment on, I've never had any other caretakers for my pets. Then, came the reality that I wasn't the only one to have discovered this fabulous new trend of pet-sitting. Finding a qualified pet sitter who was available was its own challenge. Over the years, I've come to know and work with three great pet sitters and my positive experiences with them prompted me to start my own business. I welcome the opportunity to meet with you and show you how I can make you and your pet's lives easier and stress-free.Read more
