Hiiii, I love animals always have. I grew up with dogs but I actually love cats too. Before I moved to long island from upstate NY, I raised 2 cats and 1 dog. They live with my parents now because they are much safer there than they would be where I live now but I visit my parents often. I read about animals often because they intrigue me and I want to understand them psychologically and behaviorally. I have a big soft spot for them and animals make me happy. I want to become a pet sitter and walker because I'm currently a substitute teacher waiting to get a permanent contract with the district, and until then I would like to earn some extra money. I am certified in secondary education for social studies and I'm good with kids. Pets are exactly like children I dont consider them any less than that and they deserve just as much care and attention as kids do.
