Meet Nancy

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I am a 58 year old woman who raised my 28 year old son on my own after his father died when he was 2. I have just moved to Asheville and am looking for fulfilling work. I have a degree in psychology which I applied in raising my son by communicating in a compassionate and respectful manner on a level he can understand. I am the favorite Aunt to my niece's 4 and 14 year old children. I love to play, go on adventures, shop and cook with kids. Teaching life skills can be entertaining if approached properly. I have a great imagination to keep activities interesting. For over a year I have volunteered at the local animal shelter and have 2 big dogs and 2 cats who I cook for, groom and exercise. I ran a pet sitting business out of my home for 2 years with many Read more regular clients. I have done it all. Yardwork, catering, errands, gift wrapping, holiday decorating, party coordinating, sick care and every other task a single parent does. I am easy going and flexible when asked to change plans. My greatest asset is my happy demeanor. When leaving your children and/or pets in another person's care, knowing that they are going to maintain a good attitude has always been at the top of my list.
