About Dakota

I've been around animals my entire life and developed a deep, intuitive understanding of their care from an early age. I grew up on a farm where I was actively involved in daily responsibilities around brood mares and other livestock, learning not only the physical aspects of animal care but also the patience, attention, and consistency they require. Over the years, I've continued to care for a wide range of animals, building hands-on experience with feeding routines, grooming, health monitoring, and maintaining safe, calm environments. I'm comfortable recognizing animal behavior and responding appropriately to different temperaments, whether working with high-energy young animals or more sensitive, routine-dependent ones. My background has given me a strong work ethic, reliability, and a calm, grounded approach to animal care. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and take pride in creating environments where they feel secure, healthy, and well cared for.
