Francesca’s love for animals started off at a very young age. With her constant interest in helping animals of all ilk, Francesca became a member of PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) at the age of 8 years old. Once old enough, she volunteered at animal hospitals in her area. Soon after, she became a pet sitter for Pet and Home Care when it started in 1999 and is now one of the full time office managers and part time pet sitter.
Shannon became a member of the Pet and Home Care team in November 2009. She started as a full-time pet sitter and is now an office manager but still loves her visits with all the wonderful animals our company cares for! She has always been a lover of animals and grew up caring for her pets as well as her neighbor’s. She has fond memories of every one of her pets from her hamster (Peanut Butter) and her iguana (Fred) to her cat (Dusty) and her dog (Bear). She loves meeting new pets and their owners as well as visiting the ones she has known since she started at P&HC. This job is perfect for her in every way: she gets to spend time so many lovable animals, each day is a new adventure, and it’s very interactive with wonderful clients and coworkers!
Darrin has been working at Pet and Home Care since he moved from Iowa in September of 2009, and absolutely loves it! A lifelong animal lover, he greatly enjoys walking and playing with all kinds of dogs, horses, and has a soft spot for cats. He currently has a 4 year old dog named Larry. Darrin now operates the Denver, Colorado office.
Favorite pet: Black or Orange Cats. Irakli has been with Pet and Home Care for almost four years and has lots of experience in providing for most animals (and always willing to learn)! He is comfortable administering medications, including insulin, and is a favorite pet sitter to many clients. Irakli works full time and loves taking long walks and often running with the pups!
My name is Melissa. I currently attend the Art Institute of Washington and I am studying culinary arts and business management. I graduate in the fall of 2012, yay! Why do I love working for Pet and Home Care? I love animals! I get to hang out with awesome doggies and kitties, meet their equally awesome parents and I get to spend lots of time outdoors; what’s not to love?! I have a twelve year old, female tuxedo cat named Kedi (Turkish for “cat”) who has feline diabetes; I don’t know what I’d do without her. I have had cats my entire life, but I hope to have a dog at some point in the future.
Jen has been with Pet and Home Care for about a year. While she has an extensive background in the Theatre/ Arts profession, she has always loved animals. She has volunteered at the Humane Society and is a proud pescatarian (eats fish but not other meats). She currently owns an orange tabby (Rum Tum Tugger), a chocolate lab (Tony), a cockatiel (Kiwi), and a 10 gallon tank stocked with fresh water fish (too many to name.. but all have names). She is also a proud Aunt and Godmother to two adorable bunnies (Knox and Kuzco). Her dream pet is a red uromastyx. She truly loves all animals and is willing to learn new things and looks forward to caring for your pets!
Andrea, is from Ecuador and is 23 years old. She has had all kinds of pets since she was a little girl (bunnies, dogs, ducks, and 1 cat) and she absolutely loves animals because her Grandmother use to have a farm and always remembers playing, feeding, and caring for all small animals. At home, she has a 6 year old Boxer (Sasha), a 1 year old Dachshund -Pug puppy (Niko), and 2 frogs (Rosita and Ramona) which she considers her kids. Even though she graduated as a Medical Assistant / Phlebotomist 2 years ago and loves helping people, she enjoys working more with animals.
Karen has been with Pet and Home Care since we opened in Denver, Colorado two years ago. She provides all the pet care to our Denver clients (with Darrin’s help.)
Karen has always had a passion to work with animals since she was a child. She loves dogs and has a special place in her heart for cats. Karen also enjoys riding her bike and cooking.
I have been with Pet and Home Care since August 2011 and I love being able to see familiar furry faces when I go into work at the pet resort. I have always loved animals and I have always had pets. In my 23 years, I have had dogs, cats, horses, fish, mice, guinea pigs and a chinchilla. Currently, I have two Bernese Mountain dogs who are half-brothers named Yukon and Porter and an English Shepherd named Milo. I also have two horses, Red Star and Dave. I have always watched my neighbors’ pets growing up, volunteered with shelters and worked with animals. I had to be without any pets for six months in 2011 while I studied abroad and I did not like it one bit. I ended up buying plants in attempt to have a pet. When I am not at work, I like kayaking, playing guitar, going to live music shows and working on my photography career.
Kathy has been with us a year now and has had the best time working with Pet and Home Care. She has always loved animals, grew up with cats and dogs, and is enjoying her time spent with other people’s pets everyday. (And being outdoors when the weather is great too!) It’s been a great experience after working years doing administrative office work. “I have met some really great pets and look forward to seeing them. They really make my day and put a smile on my face!”
