I am often asked why I, of all people, currently have no animals at home. Well, I would need to go back to work full time to supplement our fixed retirement income. Then, our pets would be left at home all day while we work. No bueno! That's why as an "empty nester" I am able to offer offer assistance to others who do not have the time flexibility that I do now. Plenty of time is available to play and give your pets the attention they deserve.

In addition to dogs and cats, I am available to care for other species of pets. (Sorry, no wookies. They smell.) I am experienced in caring for senior citizens of the animal world.

My husband is semi-retired, but is just as much an animal person. Growing up in Miami, he always had reptiles - iguanas, lizards, snakes, turtles - because he was allergic. When he outgrew his allergies the family added dogs. There will be no shortage of belly scratches and playing fetch when Bruce is around.
