About
A lifetime with animals, right here in San Diego
I've spent more than 40 years caring for all kinds of pets: dogs and cats, birds, rabbits, reptiles, fish, and the occasional animal that doesn't fit a category. I've been part of the San Diego community for nearly 20 of those years.
What I enjoy most is the custom side of the work. No two animals are the same, so I don't run a one-size-fits-all routine. Feeding schedules, medications, favorite walks, the spot on the couch they insist on, the cat who only eats if you sit nearby: I learn it, write it down, and follow it.
- Care plan written for each pet
- Photo and text updates every visit
- Comfortable with medications and senior pets
- Your home looked after too
