Love That Grew Into a Legacy
Animals have always been woven into my life, but my brother’s influence gave that love a deeper purpose. Before he passed, his final words to me were to “find your passion deep inside and build that into your dream job to create happiness and success in life.”
That wish became my guiding light. What began as a personal journey of healing
Animals have always been woven into my life, but my brother’s influence gave that love a deeper purpose. Before he passed, his final words to me were to “find your passion deep inside and build that into your dream job to create happiness and success in life.”
That wish became my guiding light. What began as a personal journey of healing soon transformed into my mission: to build a business rooted in compassion, trust, and the kind of care every pet and family deserves, but also build a foundation of passion my brother and I shared. Each day, I carry a piece of his spirit with me, in every connection I make with clients and every animal I’m entrusted to care for.
My Past Experiences That Shaped Me
My Past Experiences That Shaped Me
My path into caregiving began early. I started babysitting at 15 and became a part-time nanny at 18, balancing school and work while developing a strong sense of responsibility, reliability, and trust. Those early years taught me that caregiving is never just a job, it’s about connection, patience, and being fully present for those who re
My path into caregiving began early. I started babysitting at 15 and became a part-time nanny at 18, balancing school and work while developing a strong sense of responsibility, reliability, and trust. Those early years taught me that caregiving is never just a job, it’s about connection, patience, and being fully present for those who rely on you.
As my experience grew, I joined a professional nanny agency, where I quickly learned the art of wearing many hats. I began as a caregiver and later became the personal assistant to the agency owner. I helped manage daily operations, prescreened and background-checked candidates, assisted families in finding the right match, and kept everything running smoothly behind the scenes. That time showed me the power of trust, organization, and attention to detail are qualities that bring peace of mind to every client.
I also spent several years working as a medical receptionist, serving as the first point of contact in a fast-paced office. I juggled phone calls, insurance forms, and scheduling (often all at once) while maintaining a calm, being at the forefront of a friendly presence for patients and staff. That experience strengthened my multitasking skills and taught me how to manage chaos gracefully, read people’s emotions, and lead with empathy, even when the printer (or the day) wasn’t cooperating.
Each of these experiences shaped how I care today, with steadiness, compassion, and an understanding that whether it’s people or pets, everyone thrives on kindness and consistency.
A Lifelong Devotion to Animals
My Past Experiences That Shaped Me
My parents instilled in me an unwavering sense of responsibility and respect for all living creatures at a young age. I grew up surrounded by animals of every kind from family farm animals, herding dogs, outdoor pets with beautiful kennels, rabbits, fish (fresh and saltwater), hamsters, hermit crabs, and multiple Labradors my family lovingly raised.

Hands-On Expertise You Can Trust
● Raised all our puppies from just six weeks old.
● From crate to confidence: housebreaking our puppies in as little as two months, one consistent step at a time.
● Volunteered for 7+ years as a Seeing Eye® puppy raiser with my family preparing young dogs for future service by teaching basic obedience, socialization, and good manners in public settings.
● Train my sweet Sadie—born deaf—to communicate through sign language she will understand, flickering outside lights at night to call her in and walk calmly and non-reactive on a loose leash.
● Supporting alll my dogs with severe separation anxiety, skills developed through years of caring for my own beloved Labradors.
● Experience with rabbits, gerbils, hamsters, hermit crabs, and even freshwater and saltwater fish—thanks to my dad’s passion for aquariums.
These experiences shaped not only my skills, but also the patience, empathy, and joy that come from truly understanding each pet.
