I've grown up surrounded by animals my entire life, from our childhood Irish Setter to our five cats and three birds. I have also cared for my own animals, including my boss's elderly Chihuahua, Tu, a sweet 15-year-old whom I care for entirely, as well as my pony, Sea Star. I bottle-fed Sea Star as a child, trained him to ride, and later taught him to pull a cart in high school. I have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals, including dog-sitting for neighbors over two summers while managing eight rescue dogs without issue. I also volunteered throughout an entire winter to feed and care for a friend's 13 horses, both morning and night. Over the years, I've taken primary responsibility for all of our family pets. I'm comfortable with animals of all temperaments, sizes, and backgrounds, and I'm often told I have a natural ability to help animals feel at ease. I treat every animal with patience, respect, and kindness, always prioritizing their safety and well-being
