Meet Gen B
Your Expert Pet Care Provider
I am a proud Dog Mama and Animal Lover that grew up as an only child with animals my entire life. I had a Saint Bernard, Lab, Shihtzu’s, Yorkie’s, Mini Schnauzer and many small dogs, lizards, guinea pigs, hermit crabs, etc. Pets are my therapy & happy place. I find joy in caring for animals and providing a safe, happy & stress-free environment for them always.
Friends and family have trusted me with their fur-babies and exotic pets. I began grooming my own dogs 30+ years ago and found great pleasure in doing so. I was a skeptic of taking them to grooming salons due to it creating uncalled for anxiety and stress. Since I have a natural ability to gain trust in pets, I am patient & detail oriented, I have furthered my knowledge and training in this area.
My focus is to make sure your pets are safe, happy and stress-free. I enjoy learning more about their daily routine and pet-care needs while adding some additional fun, exercise and love.
I specialize in small and mid-size breeds, dogs with anxiety and senior pets. I also care for large breed fur-babies and cats in their own home. I offer play-time inside and outside in a supervised fenced in yard, potty breaks, walks, pop-in visits, grooming services, pet taxi service and much more.
I left Corporate America in 2020 and pursued my dream of caring for animals. My Grandma Claire (best friend) always inspired me to “Find what I love and do it.” During Covid, I had the opportunity to step back from being a District Manager and care for my elderly grandma during her final years as well as other people’s animals around the community. Upon my Grandma Claire’s passing, I decided to set more time aside for myself and take the time to do what I truly love which was Grandma Claire’s goal for me always.
Today, I am so very proud and grateful to be the Owner and CEO of Gen B Happy Paws Pet Service- “Where Pets Are Family.”
Living my “True Dream and Grandma Claire’s Wish.”
