Andrea Kaendler

Hello, I’m Andrea and passionate about pets. Because I want to share my love with our best furry friends, I joined the Pawsitively Professional team in 2015. My husband, Hermann, and I are proud parents of our Golden Retriever, Sunny, and we have had the good fortune of Golden Retrievers enriching our family life for the last 21 years. But I love ALL dogs (and cats) alike! And, I’m looking forward to visiting your fur kids for healthy excercise, loving playtime, tail-wagging attention and lots of fun!

Being one of their best friends is my biggest reward.

Who better to give a “bark out” about my Best Friend Person, Amy? ME! My name is Mini and I’m her BFF – Best Furry Friend. We met 5 years ago because my Amy was spending her time rescuing Golden Retrievers & finding them new Forever Homes. I was her Rescue #18 and quite a “pawful” because I had zero manners!

But we had that inexplainable instant golden connection that turned her “Alone” Home into our “Forever Together” Home. Some might think it could be “ruff” for us to get along because we have many differences; my Best Friend Person likes sipping from mugs while I prefer slurping from bowls, she craves chocolate treats where I am all about bacon treats, and I could yelp on & on about this. Probably our biggest difference is that my BF Person, Amy, loves taking my kind – canines – on walks, but I prefer napping on the cool tile inside our home.

So it was MY idea that she go find an outlet walking with others from the Pawsitively Professional Pack while I nap. A total Win/Win for our Purrfect relationship.

Ariana Peralta

My name is Ariana. I was born and raised in Lima-Peru and moved to Sarasota when I was 12. I went to Riverview High and then pursued a Bachelor’s degree at FIU in Miami. I love pets and I’m happy that once I moved back to Sarasota, I was given the opportunity to be a part of the Pawsitively team and share that passion. I have a Red Heeler pup named Sophie and she’s 4. She’s the fur baby of the house, the only baby for now, and we love her very much! I’ve been around pets all of my life so being able to connect with other pets and their families is rewarding and fun!

Hello my name is Cindy. I have loved dogs and cats since my childhood. My first dog was a collie named Prince when I was 6 years old. I am a native Floridian. I lived in the mid west for many years and then came back to Florida. When I was 20 years old I was working for the Humane Society and adopting dogs out from my home. I had a kennel at my home that made this possible. I have loved animals my whole life. I have been lucky enough to have many dogs and cats. I have had 5 Boston Terriers so far and currently own 2 – Rita and Moonie.
