At the age of 11 I have been a Foster parent for dogs and cats at my local humane society which has allowed me to understand the importance of responsibility and care of animals who are not my own. 4 years ago I started working at my local pet hospital and boarding facility which has given me the most qualified skills and experience for these services as dog walking, caring for animals, and communicating with the owners were frequent tasks of every shift. I have a very strong passion and a very large place in my heart for anything with 4 paws. I believe that having both of these experiences as well as having multiple animals growing up has allowed me to understand and achieve the responsibility of caring for another’s pet and treating it just as if it were my own.
