About: Taking care of animals have always been a passion of mine. Before my parents decided on getting our family a dog I made a powerpoint to convince my parents about how it would teach my siblings and I about responsibility. It wasn’t easy but I finally managed to get my parents on board with getting a doggo! My parents were very impressed on how good I was at taking care of our furry family member that they would talk to their friends to let me pet sit for them here and there, this experience not only taught me about responsibility but also about how special it was to take care of each and every animal.

I would make sure all the doors are locked for safety purposes and always make sure I know if any of my furry buddies have allergies or an illness I should know about so I can make sure they are safe in my care!
