I've had a passion for animals since I was a little girl. Growing up, my family always had dogs and the one who really impacted my life was a golden retriever named Bumblebee. He was my best friend and was so protective and sweet. He was the reason I became interested in working with animals.

Raysa C. says "Pamela boarded my dogs two times at her house. She sent me updates and pictures regularly and the dogs were happy. Would board with her again!"
