Hi, I’m Monica!
My husband and I both grew up in animal-loving homes, and decided to raise our family the same way! We continued the tradition with our two daughters, Noelle and Hannah.
In 2010, Schatzie joined our family and our lives have been full of adventure ever since!
In my first book, Schatzie Explores the Creek, your young reader will meet our little Schatzie, a shaggy schnauzer, and follow along in her journey.
I’d love to hear your thoughts on the book! You can contact me in the tab above to send a little note. I look forward to hearing from you!
Thank you!


The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the LORD lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
