About
Hi!
Come Meet Our Team
A passion for animals and an interest in serving others inspired the decision to found Language of Animals in 2018. We've been providing loyal and loving pet care in the St. Petersburg and Tampa areas ever since!
Kendra
Founder
A life-long lover of all animals, I have over a decade of experience in caring for animals all the way from dogs to bearded dragons and from cats to monkeys. I am fortunate to care for two felines, Sage and Orion, and have previously enjoyed volunteering at local animal shelters. I am versed in a variety of pet care, including medication administration and behavior management. More than just someone to "sit" your pet, I believe that animals have unique ways of communicating their needs, thoughts, and emotions to us. As we open ourselves up to alternative channels of communicating with our furry loved ones, we can better advocate for their livelihoods.

I have been interested in the care of animals from a young age and have always admired their unconditional love for their families. As a student originally on track to become a veterinarian, I found my purpose in providing specialized, one-on-one care, which has motivated me to follow a career in veterinary technology and at-home pet care. My experience in the veterinary field began in 2016, and I have since acquired many skills ranging from first aid to basic phlebotomy. At home, I have a potcake pup named Molly and a brown tabby named Sylvia. But rest assured, I still have plenty of love to offer for all species! I have cared for small animals, including bearded dragons, birds, guinea pigs, rabbits, and snakes. In my years of experience, I have found that each animal has their unique personality that invokes an individualised approach based on compassionate care.

Pet Care Professional
I bring a unique mix of skills from my experiences as an EMT and swim coach to my passion for animal care. Volunteering at animal shelters taught me the nuances of animal behaviour, while my EMT background ensures I am always prepared for emergencies, providing a safe environment for your pets. My experience as a swim coach has honed my patience and ability to encourage trust, making me adept at handling pets with diverse needs. I am excited to bring my compassion and attentiveness to your beloved companions, ensuring they receive the best care and love in your absence!

I’ve loved being around animals for as long as I can remember. In middle school, I volunteered through community service at local bird stores cleaning their cages. When I was a child I also helped with dog walking and on weekends I even spent time visiting carriage horses in downtown, telling them knock-knock jokes during their breaks. I currently have three happy healthy cats at home, and have formed deep bonds with many dogs throughout my life. I've had rabbits, guinea pigs, and even reptiles. I genuinely enjoy being an active companion; running around, playing with toys, and engaging their energy—but I also value quiet moments like couch snuggles, belly rubs, and chin scratches. I don’t view animals as “less than” people. I see them as sentient beings with their own personalities, needs, and souls, deserving of respect, patience, and individualized care. I would be honored to care for your furry family members and can’t wait to meet them!
We know how important all aspects of your animal's well-being are to them and you. We take pride in the safety, attention, and love that we put into caring for your furry family member.
We can't wait to meet you!
