When you visit Cambria, Moonstone Beach or San Simeon, bring along your dog and stay in one of many pet-friendly hotels, motels or vacation rentals in the area.  If you want to take a side trip to the Hearst Castle, Big Sur, enjoy some kayaking, or sample some of our area's extraordinary restaurants and wineries, just call me and I will take care of that family member who isn't welcomed to join in your fun.  Since pets are generally not allowed to stay in rooms unattended, I will come to your place of lodging and keep your dog entertained, walked, fed, and provide belly rubs on demand. If you reside here, I'll be happy to come to your home and provide loving care when you're not there.

Caring for dogs has been my lifelong passion.  I studied veterinary nursing at Pierce College, Woodland Hills, CA.  I spent four years as a contributing editor for the Avila Community News with a column "Ask Jill," which featured advice on pet health and behavior issues.  I am certified in Dog First Aid by the American Red Cross.
