My Experience

I have an A.S. in Animal Care and Management from Becker College and a BSSp in Communications and Public Relations from Emerson College in Boston. 

I started my career in Whitman Massachusetts in 1997, opening a cat boarding, grooming and retail shop exclusively for cats. I began learning special needs care techniques for my own cats, and then I began tending to more special needs and senior cats for my clients.

I enjoy providing palliative care, oral medications, sub-q fluids, insulin, special diets, transdermal meds along with pampering cats in the comfort of home.

I'm a proud member of a Pet Sitters Associates, a Professional Member of The Cat Writers Association,  Supporting Member of International Cat Grooming Institute, has written a cat care column and was an Events Columnist for the Pet Gazette, and was a contributing blogger for Nashville Paw Magazine’s The Cat’s Meow blog. 

I deliver enthusiastic presentations and videos on Cat Care and the Feline Lifestyle for cat parents and professionals. I am the creator of How To Find a Cat Sitter That Makes You Purr,  What's Your Purr-sonality Type,  Cat Grooming 101 - a workshop for cat parents, and Cat Nutrition Basics, among other topics.
