I've always had a love for animals. I've had 20+ cats at one time. I work with twins right now and help with the animals they have. I take care of their goats, sheep, cow, and dogs. I am responsible, caring, and trustworthy. I've bottle fed baby goats and cows. I've looked after animals while their owners were out of town.
