I obtained a BA in Marketing Communications from Columbia College in Chicago. My goal is to work in the pet care/shelter industry to help homeless and abused animals. I have had a natural love for animals all my life and share a special connection with them. I currently own a Golden/Border Collie mix I adopted from VOCAL and a senior Blue-Tick Coonhound. Chance was brought into our home when we rescued him from OCAS. I also have three young cats that I adopted from a friend that found them abandoned outside. I've never been without a dog or cat in my life and feel they complete a happy home. I am also a photographer and have photographed all types of pets from snakes to ferrets. I would like to pet sit and dog walk to gain additional experience for a future career in the pet industry. I currently have three years experience with pet sitting/walking. My references include current/past clients & friends.
