Growing up my house was always filled with a bunch of fur babies! I currently take care of 2 English mastiffs, 2 house trained bunnies, and 3 cats. I have done lots of research regarding animals throughout high school and studied some college for veterinary medicine. I would love to keep your pets safe and happy!
