I'm a Certified ESL teacher and vacation property manager, as well as a complete animal lover! I've been lucky enough to travel extensively, from backpacking solo around Costa Rica for a month, teaching English to elementary school children in Bangkok, to visiting friends in Sao Paulo.

I'm happiest outside in nature, often amazed by the simplest thing. But being able to walk around in a city instead of driving, is a joy!

Since I don't have any munchkins of my own anymore, I love being able to care for others. Being able to combine my love of travel and dogs; or horses, or goats... is a wonderful way to see the world. . And having a pup cuddle in my lap, and greet me with a ton of kisses; it's the best!

I have taken care of people's pets for years, mostly in Los Angeles and San Francisco. I am passionate about the care I give to the pets I care for, always going the extra mile, if that's taking a rooster to the vet, or calling a taxi instead of finishing a dog walk when the weather starts going to an extreme, I always put the animals comfort and safety first.
