I was born in Colorado and raised in California. I moved to Oregon in 2012.  I choose to live in Oregon because it is very green, it rains, and I love the seasons throughout the year.  I currently live in West Linn. 

 

When I’m not caring for your pet; I’m hiking, refinishing furniture, gardening, reading, going to concerts, travelling or spending time with friends and family.

 

Throughout my childhood I’ve cared for the family pets:  cats, birds, and goldfishes. While I haven’t had a pet dog of my own I have always looked forward to opportunities to be around dogs.  I especially enjoy going out on walks in the neighborhood or travelling to a nature park where I can bring a dog along for a hike.  

 

My business has blossomed from what started out with friends wanting me to watch their pets for a weekend and eventually it turned into referrals from those friends. Soon my schedule began to fill up with requests months in advance and sometimes a year in advance.

 

I established my business in 2016 in the city of Portland. Since then, I relocated to West Linn in 2019. I began to have more regular clientele. 

 

I believe the work that I do cherishes and respects the special bond that animals have with their owners.  While I’m no substitute for you I hope that I can make your time a way a special one for you and your beloved pets; knowing that your animals and your home are safe in your absence.

About Me

 About me: 

Finn.jpg

My cat Finn that I adopted at 4 months old in 2020 from the Oregon Humane Society. 

My cat Binx who showed up at my doorstep in Torrance, CA. He's been with me since 2008.

Me and my kitty cat Freddy Teddy.jpg

Our family cat Fred in 1989. We found him as a stray kitten in our neighborhood. 

Just  a few things I should mention. 

Because I want to make this right for both of us. 

 

  • When it comes to medications. I only will give pills (in a pill pocket or in their food.) No syringes. 

  • Pet size. I prefer only take care of dogs that are not over 80 pounds. (such as the size of a labrador, golden retriever or labradoodle). Small dogs are fine. 

  • Your pet must have some sort of behavioral training. I am not a licenses pet trainer. I've just got 9 years of businesss experience with pets from all walks of life. But a lifetime of experience being a pet owner.  But I will continue to use the special cues in which they have been taught from their trainer or parent. 

  • I prefer to use a standard leash for dog walks. No retractable leashes. ​

  • Let me know if your dog or cat that known not friendly with strangers. That they take time to get to know.
