I am a junior at Virginia Tech and got a puppy over quarantine back in March. I know how much attention dogs need and love to play with them. I have had dogs and cats all my life and am very experienced in caring for them. I would also pet sit for my neighbors ever since middle school.

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.
