What makes you passionate for petcare? Why this work?

I’m passionate for pet care because your pets are essentially your kids! They need all the love and affection, so having the opportunity to provide that as another trusted human is so special.

What do you want your clients to know about you?

I am patient, reliable, and always try to go the extra mile! Growing up with cats and dogs, I’ve loved being around pets my whole life! Previous to finding this team, I’ve cared for pets for friends and family over the years. I currently do not have pets of my own so that frees me up to give my love and energy to those around Portland (definitely going to get a dog someday though!). I love being outside and dog walking pairs very nicely with that. Being able to offer reliable pet care is so important because pets are key components of any family unit, they deserve to have their needs met and to be loved on!
