I’m from Edmonton originally and during expo I relocated here. I saw there was a real need for Home and pet care while people were on vacation, or in hospital or otherwise needed assistance. I was working in a local hospital and I started being the Dog nanny for the doctors and staff I live in North Vancouver at this time in my 18 year-old is off to university so it’s just myself and anyone fuzzy feathered or Fin I can take care of. I go to the local beaches and dog parks daily and I’m not working so I’m at home the majority of the time.

I started walking dogs when I was a little kid and then I started a dog walking Service. That expanded to home care and pet care. Then I worked at animal shelters and rescues. I love the real variety of all animals. Even the ones other people don’t want to deal with they specialize in rodents and parrots in particularly dogs. Let’s discuss what you need.

I have an 18 year-old daughter who is on the owner’s role and off to university plus a captain of her soccer team. I feel like that’s a big achievement to raise a happy healthy high achieving child. Another achievement is successfully introducing a medication into the women’s treatment centre that would assist the addicted women and their newborn babies. It was started on an experimental basis and it still continues to this day. I also feel like after having stage fright I was able to play in a band, deliver speeches, and sing in a choir. I also work at staying healthy and eat properly.
