I enjoy all kinds of animals. Taking them for walks & playing with them. I am currently working FT in. Nursing home and I have the option to bring a small dog with me to work as long as they are up to date on all vaccines & healthy.
I love and value animals very much and believe in caring for not just their physical, but emotional needs as well. I have a knack for reading animals and perhaps they sense this because I lead with kindness, respect and understanding.
I've grown up with cats and dogs my entire life and own one cat myself, who is a treasure.
