I have always had animals in my life growing up. There was never a point in my life where I didn't own a cat or a dog. That being said, I understand that both need a certain amount of love and care in order to be managed. My most recent dog I had was getting old in his age - but I knew despite this he needed patience, love, and care from me. What I lack in experience I make up for the willingness to learn, adapt and overcome situations. I understand how valuable animals are and I would never under appreciated them because they are not my own - like I would expect from anyone else with my animals. I will be graduating soon, so my schedule is very open when it comes to taking care of dogs and cats alike.
