Welcome to my page!
I spent nearly a decade as a Registered Nurse, primarily in Home Health and Case Management. I worked in private residences where trust, consistency, and maintaining routines mattered.
Brass Tacks was built to bring that same level of professionalism to local owners who need thorough property oversight and skilled animal care while they’re away.
Today, I manage the entire ecosystem of homes and acerage properties:
-
Grounds and Systems: Including overnights, water and stock tank monitoring, circuit breaker checks, fencing checks, pre- or post-storm assessments, and other property oversight.
-
Structured Pet and Animal Care: Routine feedings, turnout, exercise, and senior or complex support.
-
Clinical Discipline: Clear communication, detailed documentation, and meticulous attention to detail.
I also support veterinarian‑directed tasks when needed, not as a substitute, but as a trusted extension of your existing care team.
