How long have you been with Prairie Path?
It will be 5 years on November 26th.
​
What is your favorite part about being a dog walker?
Getting out and walking. I love being outside. The fact that I can stroll with a four-legged friend is a bonus.
​
Do you have any pets at home?
I currently have Hamlet, a tan tabby cat.
​
What's your favorite way to spend a day off?
It depends upon my mood. Right now, I'm writing a screenplay so a day off would be spent wrangling words. I also love to read and garden.
​
What dog breed is most similar to your personality and why?
Oh boy. I guess greyhound because, if you look up "couch potato" in the dictionary, they are the illustration. I'm an introvert and the greyhounds I've walked have not been interested in other dogs. "Let's walk and go home." I can identify with that.
​​
What animal would you like to trade lives with for a day and why?
I would trade lives with Hamlet. He gets to eat and sleep and have someone who dotes on him.
​
If you were stranded on a deserted island with any of the pets you care for, who would you choose and why?
I think I would choose, out of all the pets I've met, Angel, the cat. It took three YEARS of my visiting her to gain her trust. Now, she lets me cuddle her and will curl up in my lap. She's incredibly soft and quite the purr machine. I'm proud of approaching her slowly and gaining her trust and now, I know she knows me and likes me. And, for me, there is nothing more comforting than rolling over in the morning and hearing a purring cat.
​
Tell us a fun fact about yourself!
In early April, I went to my daughter's in Syracuse, New York to view the total eclipse. I've seen a lot of partials in my life, but never a total. It was incredible.
