Likes: My Persian Cats- I love the “foo foos”, all of my “happy to see you Kris” pet customers. Good manners, well-spoken intelligent people and challenges.
Dislikes: People who treat their pets as commodities, rather than the precious lives we have the privilege of sharing. People who define their animals level of health care based on what something will cost.
Favorite Color: Purple
Favorite Food: It’s Spaghetti and meatballs and CHOCOLATE! Not together though
Favorite Movie: Adaptation with Nicholas Cage and Meryl Streep
Favorite Song: Whitesnake “Here I go again”y mood
“Tricks of the Trade:” :" Always do and give more of yourself than what people expect…E.G.I always bring a new toy or treats with me for the pet. I leave care sheets and a full summary report while they are away. Go above and beyond the call of duty to set yourself apart from the mediocre.
Favorite Dog Name:“Yliko” pronounced Leko; it is Greek meaning sweet-
Favorite Cat Name Mot” one of my Persian girls, named after the Warner Bros. cartoon characters “Mot” the alien baby who was accidentally sent to earth. Mot is Bubby’s mom, she is a lovely blue and white CFA grand champion Persian spay. She just celebrated her 9th B-DAY.
Favorite “Alternative” Pet: Guinea Pigs, I have a Silky Satin and a Silky Peruvian. I also like lizards and frogs. I guess I could say I like every animal except snakes.
Favorite “Downtime” Activity: reading and relaxing with the cats; craft projects
Best Pet-sitting Experience: One of my customers has a beautiful large home with 2 Maine Coon cats and a domestic shorthair, I also had the privilege of feeding all of the wildlife that shows up for food, beautiful Rose Breasted Grosbeak’s Baltimore Oriole’s baby raccoons and deer…it was just so beautiful and peaceful.
