Growing up, I was surrounded by animals that included cows, pigs, horses, cats and dogs. I currently have two cats that I absolutely love as well. I love coming to clean home, so right when I wake up in the morning, I find time to do a bit of cleaning. A clean home clears the mind and makes a person at ease in their environment.

Some families have my stay in their home for animals with higher needs, and other families have me stop in 2-3 times a day. I love to hike, so I often take the dogs out on long walks with me...
