Growing up, my bedroom was a petting zoo. Dogs, cats, a fat-tailed gecko, fish, and a frog kept me company as a kid. I kept tiny kittens healthy, nursed the gecko with a syringe as he got elderly, and caught the newborn fish before the frog could catch them. At school, teachers would call me out of class and to their classroom for fish tank emergencies since they knew I could quickly and professionally clean out tanks, turning it into a learning experience for their students. I've grown to have experience taking care of horses, goats, turkeys, chickens, snakes, cows, turtles, pet spiders, and many kinds of cats and dogs. I have experience taking animals to the vet and taking care of sick animals, house-sitting, and ranch-sitting. While I love animals, my primary love is for people. I love serving others, and taking care of someone's pets with excellence is a way to honor someone well. It's a responsibility I don't take lightly.
