I named my company Aloha Pet Services because “aloha” means love and that is exactly how I feel about animals. Aloha is also a greeting in Hawaii. It means hello, as well as good-bye. When you say good-bye to your pets, we say hello!
My love for animals began at a very young age. Growing up on a plantation on The Big Island of Hawaii, my experience with animals started with tiny critters in sugar cane fields. As a pre-schooler I marveled at spiders, beetles, geckos and fish. In grade school I was curious about guinea pigs, rabbits and birds. As a teenager I was responsible for the care of our family cats, dogs, pigs, goats, chickens and horses.
Anyone who knows me knows that my face lights up when I interact with animals, and that they respond to the ALOHA (Love) that they feel around me.
I’ve been helping friends, family and business associates with their pet care needs all my life, so it made perfect sense to also offer these services to my community. After 15 years of working in corporate America in the hospitality industry, I decided to combine my 5-star service with my love of animals. Thanks to the encouragement from my friend Blythe Carroll, owner of P.E.T.S. (Pets Enjoying Tender Services) in Half Moon Bay, California and the support of my loving family and friends, here I am building my OHANA (family) and having the best time of my life.
A warm and friendly Hawaiian welcome to you and your pets. You and your pets will be part of my ohana (family) and the services I extend will reflect Aloha Pet Services!
