about american genie!
Hi! Fellow Pet Lovers!
My name is Linda and I'd like to introduce myself and my two retired greyhounds, Autumn Breeze and my newest girl Keeshca Chablis.
Why would you trust me to care for your loved one (s)?
1. I have always had a 4 legged friend in my life. since I was a child. I grew up with an American Water Spaniel, followed by a short-haired Dachshund, Pomeranian and 3 Seal Point Siamese cats. Currently I have 2 retired greyhounds, a canary and a Seal Point Siamese cat.
2. My passion for animals continues beyond my own home.I have stopped in busy intersections to pick up dogs who have gotten off of their leashes or neighbors' dogs who have accidentally escaped out of their yard. I have volunteered at Save-A-Pet walking the dogs waiting for adoption. Currently I assist with transporting retired greyhounds and fostering for Greyhounds Only.
3. I also care for my feathered friends in my backyard, which is certified as a backyard habitat. I love to feed God's creatures all year long, including the winter, when I set up heaters in the bird baths. My satisfaction in life is knowing that they can relay on me for food, shelter, nesting & water.
4. You are hiring someone who is following their dream and is dedicated to serving others & caring for their loved ones. I am not a 'hired staff member' who is doing this to get by while pursing another dream or career.
5. I am a native Chicagoan who has lived here all of my life. I was born in Chicago and later moved to the Northwest suburbs. I know the suburbs like the back of my hand, since I worked & played in many of the Northwest & Western suburbs. I love all of our four seasons! Having played in the blizzard of 1967, and downhill skiing while growing up, I appreciate the snow and love the cold weather. Even when it is raining, I would rather be outside walking a dog, instead of being inside.
My pledge and commitment to my customers:
I pledge allegiance to my customers, of the Northwest & Western suburbs, of Illinois. And with the commitment, for which they request, I, myself, under God, will serve and protect their pets with all of my heart and care. Linda Rogus Arrichiello
