About: I have taken care of my two animals my whole life. I also have watched many friends and family pets my whole life. I absolutely love all animals and have even had ducks, turtles, bunnies, squirrels, and more. I’m a sophomore in college at SIUE and I have a very free schedule. My class schedule ranges from 1-3 classes a day which allows me to let the dog out in between these classes and with the dog the majority of the day.

I love cuddling and playing with the animals anytime they want to.
