History

I have been working with animals for more than 20 years, as a pet sitter and shelter volunteer. In 2000 I completed a two-year training course to be a Tellington Touch Practitioner. This training taught me how help a dog or cat feel safe, so they'll be willing to cooperate with me, rather than to respond to force. I put a lot of time into building a relationship with the animals I take care of. I listen to hear what they have to tell me. I give them my heartfelt attention -- looking after, watching over, nurturing. When you hire me, you're employing a good mother for your pets.

Specialties

In home cat care and safe, flexible small dog walking for dogs and cats who want extra attention. Senior and shy pets a specialty. Half-hour or one-hour visits, or schedules tailored to your pets' needs. Energy work and Tellington Touch for all pets. Tellington Touch is derived from Feldenkrais bodywork for people. It complements training, interrupting bad habits and allowing pets to make better choices. It also promotes well-being and health as a complement to veterinary care.
