Abby passed away November 24. One week later, I learned I was pregnant with baby #2. I repressed the majority of my grief because I needed to be strong for the baby. Since that sad day when we said goodbye to Abby, the house was left with zero howling duets, a quiet and aloof Miniature […]

I am so thrilled to share with you the gender of baby #2! If you’ve been following me for awhile, you know I have a sweet little 2 1/2 year old girl. Although when she was in my belly, I was convinced she was a boy. Here is a portion of my blog post in […]

Some pets are easier than others depending on their breed, personality and history. Regardless of these factors, I’ve compiled some tips […]

I probably overshare my personal life on social media, but it’s just who I am.  And in the process, I haven’t just gained “followers” over the past 10 + years. I can honestly say so many clients and social media followers are now my dear friends. There are supporters near and far – even in […]
