I offer dog walks, potty breaks, drop-in pet sitting, boarding, farm/barn visits and more. *FULLY LICENSED & INSURED I was born and raised in Roanoke, VA, a place that has shaped my life and passions in countless ways. From a young age, I was deeply passionate about animals and their care. Every pet we had was a rescue, a testament to my commitment to providing a loving home to those in need. The house I grew up in, which later became our office when our family business relocated there, was situated on a street where sadly, it was common for people to dump unwanted animals. This unfortunate reality only fueled my determination to help as many animals as possible. For 50 successful years, our family ran a swimming pool construction company. When we decided to sell the business, I saw it as an opportunity to pursue my personal interests and take some “me” time. I returned to school, allowing myself the time and space to discover my true calling. It was during this period of self-reflection that I finally figured out what I wanted to be when I grew up. You’ve heard of a “jack of all trades”? Well, I see myself as a “Jill of most trades.” I bring with me 25 years of office management experience along with a lifetime of both animal and pool care. These diverse skills have equipped me to handle a wide variety of tasks and challenges with confidence and competence. As a strong, independent woman, there isn’t much I can’t do around the house. From fixing issues to maintaining the lawn, I take pride in my ability to tackle any project that comes my way. This blend of professional experience and practical skills makes me a versatile and resourceful individual. In conclusion, my journey has been one of dedication, passion, and continuous learning. Whether it's through rescuing animals, managing an office, or caring for a home, I have always strived to give my best in everything I do. As I look forward to the future, I am excited to continue using my skills and experiences to make a positive impact in the world around me.
