Feel a sense of peace knowing your pet is safe with me. As a professional animal lover, I know how important social skills are for cats and dogs. I enjoy being outside (when the weather permits) for a long walk, or sitting in the sun with a kitty. Whatever your animal wants or needs, I will provide that for them!
