About Lucinda
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! I am a recently retired teacher who is available to take care of your pets, especially cats. I have always had at least one cat in the house since I graduated from college many years ago, so I am very familiar with taking care of cats. I have also had a few hamsters and mice under my roof, so I could also help you out there. If you have dogs who are friendly, I have no problem taking care of them, too. I am dependable and would love to help you out!

Lucinda and I have been good friends since we first met a few years ago. She is smart, well read, and interesting to talk to. She is a sensitive soul and is a very kind, caring person. She is an experienced teacher and I know her passion is working with ESL students. It was always easy for me to see how such a gentle soul could work well with students who were learning English and perhaps were even new arrivals to the United States. This type of job takes the unique sensitivity that Lucinda has.
