About Mariana

Hello! My name is Mariana, I really enjoy being around and taking care of animals. I have been like this for as long as I can remember. In fact, my nickname when I was really young was Elmyra (Duff), the cartoon character from the animated television series, Tiny Toon Adventures. People called me that because I was obsessed with animals, especially cute ones! I cannot count how many times I took homeless dogs and cats home with me in Brazil, begging my parents to keep them. I have a miniature pinscher back home in Brazil. I miss her very much and taking care of other dogs and animals make me feel closer to her. I have experience with a wide variety of pets and I currently live in a house that has 7 chickens, a leopard gecko, and a Portuguese water dog. I love to play with animals, pet them, throw balls for them to fetch, and take them on long walks or runs. I just really enjoy being around them! Let me know if you would like to get connect. Thank you
