I've always had a deep love for animals. Growing up, my family always owned a dog and a cat, alongside some smaller friends like hermit crabs, fish, hamsters, or rats. When I was younger we owned a female Border Collie-Black Lab mix and we currently have a six year old male Boxer-Rottweiler mix named Cody. Outside of my family pets, I also have experience in pet care through volunteer work with Lilie's Legacy in Petaluma, a non-profit organization that gives elderly dogs from animal shelters a home and seeks adopters for them. In Petaluma, I also worked for Pet Indulgence, as a pet sitter, where I cared for dogs, cats, and parrots by walking and/or pet sitting costumer's animals in their homes. I'm currently a UCSC graduate applying to graduate school and would love to walk your dog(s)!
