I've always had animals and I've always loved them very much, so I feel comfortable taking care of and protecting them. I started taking care of cats and when my neighbor went away I was responsible for taking care of and feeding them. I've always walked dogs and for me it's also fun.

I've had a passion for animals since I was a little girl. Growing up, my family always had dogs and the one who really impacted my life was a golden retriever named Bumblebee. He was my best friend and was so protective and sweet. He was the reason I became interested in working with animals.
