I shadowed at the local veterinary clinic for 2 years in high school. I assisted with surgical procedures, caring for dogs and cats, cleaned cages and groomed pets. Furthermore, I had a Boston Terrier since age 11. I have always had pets in my home.

I had an English breed of dog, called a Carter. I washed it twice a week and taught it a number of tricks. For example, I taught it to roll over, which it did learn to do fairly quickly. I also was able to hold my leg up and taught it to jump over my legs both...

I have always loved animals. I often seize the opportunity to watch relatives, family friends, or neighbors dog when they leave for trips or if they simply need someone to take the dog on a walk. I have had two dogs in my childhood (a husky and a beagle) and have...

I have had cats my whole life. I've helped train and care for a grandchild's dog. I love pets. My kids have had birds, fish, gerbils, and hamsters. I have done pet-sitting for a week or overnight at the owner's home.
