I was raised in a very pet-friendly household with dogs, birds, frogs, and rabbits, which gave me a lifelong love for animals of all kinds. For over 15 years, I've been caring for pets independently. I have been providing walks, feedings, sitting, trips to the groomer, and plenty of attention and affection.
