Hello! I am a UC Davis graduate with a B.S. in Animal Science and a minor in History. I have worked at dog daycares, the UC Davis veterinary medical teaching hospital, and animal shelters caring for animals beyond just dogs and cats. Growing up in Southern California, I volunteered at the Pasadena Humane Society & SPCA where I specialized in training dogs of all breeds. It is at that shelter where I met the cute puppy in my picture (we named him Napoleon!). After adopting him, Napoleon has always been by my side as I matured into adulthood. Like all good dogs, he has been my best friend and taught me more than anyone else how to care for animals. At the UC Davis vet hospital, I also managed the cats living on site in the transfusion medicine department, where I was tasked with daily feeding, disinfecting, socializing, and cleaning. I have also fostered kittens from the shelter. I would love to be given the opportunity to help care for your pet, and you can be rest assured that your fur baby will have my undivided attention. I have spent my life among companion animals, and I'd love the privilege of spending some time with yours!
