I have spent a lot of time around animals and caring for them. I volunteer at a shelter near my university, Rhode Island SPCA, as a cat socialization volunteer and a dog-walker. At home, I have a dog named Max, and I am currently fostering a cat named Bean.
I would love to care for your pets while I am home for winter break!
