I'm a Registered Behavior Technician who loves caring for both children and animals. My career has taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and providing compassionate, individualized care—qualities I bring to every pet I look after. I'm a proud pet parent to my sweet tabby cat, Milo, and my Great Pyrenees mix, Sadie. They are truly part of my family, so I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping a familiar routine, I'll treat them with the same care and attention I give my own.
I am a compassionate, patient, and attentive individual who understands the unique needs of children. My ability to communicate effectively, provide a safe and nurturing environment, and engage kids in meaningful, age-appropriate activities makes me an excellent caregiver. Additionally, my reliability, adaptability, and commitment to fostering their growth and development ensure that children feel supported and cared for in my presence. I love children and have worked managing a children’s museum that was very hands on with child care. Im currently finishing my Masters degree in education to be an elementary teacher.
