From Bearded Dragons To Great Danes Your Pet Is Safe With Me :)

I have been an animal lover all my life. Having been raised around all kinds of creatures I just adore animals! (except the creepy crawler kind)! I presently own an Amazon parrot and beautiful stray from Napa. Not sure what breed, but know he's part schnauzer. One of the sweetest animals we've had!
I grew up in a home with dogs and have always loved them. I have taken care of my brother's dogs-feeding, walking, etc. over the years, so I am comfortable with them!
I like working with animals because in my career I work with people all day everyday and it's nice to get outside and walk or cuddle up with a pup!
