About

Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile, and considering me to transport your precious cargo! I'm an 58 year old Mom, currently living in Northern Virginia with my awesome partner Tim. I've been transporting dogs and cats on Citizen Shipper now for several months, and I also have some experience transporting rescue animals for 2 local rescue groups, as a volunteer. I love animals and donate my time whenever possible to saving them from high kill shelters to other towns where they have a better chance to be adopted or have foster homes waiting for them. My career for the past 20 plus years had been in smaller, local nonprofits, mostly running the resale shops. Running the business side of it (it may be a nonprofit, but the shops need to make money to support the organization!), managing the staff and volunteers. Some volunteers were there because they just enjoyed it and wanted to support the organization, some were students needing hours for school/church/etc., but most were community service volunteers who were court ordered to do volunteer hours for some infraction, like a speeding ticket. I affectionately call them my "naughty kids". I now spend my time taking as many road trips as I can, mostly to hike and visit National Parks, and spending time in my workshop, refinishing and upcycling furniture. I'm passionate about saving good but ugly furniture from the landfill and making it attractive and useful again. I enjoy travel, seeing everything there is to see, cooking with my son and his girlfriend back home in the Chicago area, spending lots of time with my partner, Tim and his adult son Connor, who has Down Syndrome. Connor is a movie buff and knows the words to every Christmas song I can find to play for him. Tim is training to be a dog trainer and works at a local K9 training and boarding center. He was in the Army as a K9 handler back in the day, has a prosthetic leg, can still hike, swim and mostly keep up with me, and he may occasionally be able to join me to transport items for Citizen Shipper. I'm a foodie, love the beach and the mountains, but mostly the beach, a good cook, care deeply for my fellow human beings and for animals of all types. Every living creature has a purpose and a place in this world/food chain, even if they are ugly and creepy - LOL! As far as transporting your beloved animal, I would love to be considered. I will not guarantee to be the lowest bidder, but I do guarantee to care for and protect them like they are my own. Oh, and my family back in Chicago has 5 cats now! All are rescues, and I adopted 4 of them with my former husband and our son - Caesar, Brutus (of course!), Claudius and Augustus. My son and his girlfriend rescue/care for the neighborhood strays as well. I'm a proud Mom to have raised a sweet and caring kid, who's now an adult. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have, and I'll be happy to chat with you to see if it's a good fit for both of us. Please message me before booking to confirm date of transport, etc. It’s possible that I’m bidding on more than one transport for a given time, so I want to be sure we are on the same page. Thanks!

Lisa C couldn’t have been any more wonderful. She was compassionate, friendly, intelligent I want to become her friend. Our little puppy was a happy camper and we would not hesitate to use her in the future. Thank you. Hope to see you again Jane.

Lisa was AMAZING! 10/10. She kept in constant contact before and during the trip with updates and shared her trip with me so I could watch my little Sugars journey. I highly recommend this service to anyone considering relocating their pets. Thank you very much!

Lisa was awesome! She was very responsive, coordinated pickup directly with the breeder, and then communicated clearly with me on ETA and how my dog was doing along the way! Highly recommend her!

100% satisfied with Lisa. She couldn’t have done a better job if she tried and she drove through snowy conditions. Kept us updated all the way and even let our friends whom she picked our wee boy up from that he was doing fine. Would have her transport any of our dogs anytime needed.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had a great experience working with Lisa! She was incredibly kind, professional, and communicative throughout the entire process. My pet arrived safely, happy, and right on schedule, which gave me so much peace of mind. I truly appreciate the care and attention she put into the transport and would highly recommend her services to anyone needing reliable and trustworthy pet transportation.

Lisa has brought our family back together by reconnecting us with our huskies. She communicates effectively and treats our huskies as if they were her own. I strongly recommend her to anyone needing her services!
