I grew up in a home full of cats and dogs, and since I’m an only child, I’ve always seen them as my siblings — playing with them, growing up alongside them. As I got older, my mom often took me along to help care for stray animals, and she taught me from a young age how to look after them. These values have been deeply rooted in me ever since and have become a meaningful part of who I am. That early connection with animals taught me not only responsibility and empathy, but also inspired my passion for animal welfare. It’s one of the reasons I feel so comfortable and fulfilled caring for pets — whether they’re my own or someone else’s. Being around animals has always felt natural to me, and I’m committed to giving them the attention and love they deserve.
