I love animals and have been around them for my entire life. During my junior year of high school, I had an internship at a veterinary clinic, where I learned how to handle, perform basic tests for, and give medication to animals. I have a lot of experience with dogs and cats, but I'm good with birds and lizards too.

In my household from growing up to raising my children we have had many loving pets from dogs, cats, ferret, and birds. I can honestly say I am a true animal advocate. I think of pets as family members, not just pets to care for. We treat our pets with the same loving care that we would our own children.
