I got my first dog when I was 8 and took care of her for 15 years, like she was a little sister. During that time, I even took a course in pet first aid so I would know what to do in an emergency. Growing up, I also cared for other animals such as horses, chickens, ducks, bunnies, guinea hens, hamsters, and fish. I also babysat as a teenager and sometimes got to pet sit for their dogs at the same time, which was always fun. I like being around dogs of all sizes and ages and enjoy getting to know their unique personalities. I have also fostered puppies recently. I always love meeting new dogs and I am excited to meet new doggie friends!
