About Alex

28 years old
I've always had a love for all animals. To this day if there is a worm drowning in a puddle on the sidewalk I will save it (not an exaggeration.) I grew up beside two hobby farms and i spent most afterschool hours playing/taking care of the animals. Everything from horseback riding, playing fetch, walking, feeding, cleaning cages, grooming, mucking stalls, hoof cleaning etc. The neighbors had a house full of birds, small rodents of all kind, reptiles, amphibians. Basically every animal you could own, it was paradise for me. Now I live an hour away and my neighbour still calls me to look after the farm, which I take lots of pride in. I would love to be a veterinarian but I am terrified of needles and couldn't bare to to put animals down. My most recent pet is a cedar waxwing bird that I found blown out of the nest so I took it under my wing and now she is almost fully grown, happy and healthy. This has been one of my greatest accomplishments. All of my pets are rescued and one day I hope to have my own hobby farm. I've been told I am a hard worker and very trusting. Thank you for taking the time to read!
