Coachella Valley, California

I established Bodhi Tree Pet Care, Inc. in January 2013. After living in the Coachella Valley for the past four years I realized that there was a great need for a volunteer organization that would assist senior citizens and others who are facing challenges in their lives with caring for their pets. Too often pets are surrendered to animal shelters only.
