Hello! I have a little over 5 years in experience with caring for animals, whether it's dogs, cats, even snakes! Never grew up with pets, but once I got older, I just absolutely adore them! Mostly dogs, I love to play with them, make sure they are fed and go on walks, and just try to love on them as if they were my own!
