With a love for the senior community and a passion for dogs, Paws and Paws Paws is literally a dream come true. I was terrified of dogs until my family adopted a cockapoo named Buffy when I was 4. Hesitant at first, and maybe for quite a few months, Buffy and I eventually became the best of friends. And that we were for 18 years. He opened my eyes and mainly my heart to a love I cannot live without. Fast forward to today. I have my own two rescues, Tchoupitoulas and Paws who is reminded daily why I love dogs!

My love for the senior community has always existed but it's certainly grown over the years. My work history mainly consists of healthcare professions - assisted living, home care, Alzheimer's and dementia patients. Their innocence is remarkable but their need is great.

Combining the two is the most rewarding career I can imagine. I believe all of our lives - the dogs, the senior community and my own- will truly benefit from Paws and Paw Paws and the programs we offer.
