About Simone

Hi, my name is Simone M! I am currently a student at The University of Missouri studying Animal Sciences hoping to be a veterinary surgeon. I have 3 pets, a Basenji named Marvin, a Chiweenie named Walter, and a Holland lop bunny named Luella. I have extensive knowledge in animal care, illness, and general wellbeing. I currently have 2 animal related internships. My first internship is with a well known MO veterinary surgeon. I travel with him to various veterinary offices, where I assist in and observe different surgeries. My second internship is through The University of Missouri. Here, I work with and care for pigs used in organ and disease research. Previously, I have also worked as a dog trainer, a sales associate in an exotic pet store, and as a dog sitter for different families. I also currently volunteer with The Pet Adoption Center in St. Charles, MO. Here I feed, clean, and love on the animals while they wait for their forever homes.
