My love for pets started when I was born into a family of 2 dogs, and I began learning how to care for them in a professional setting when I was 15 years old and began volunteering with my father at an animal shelter nearby. I volunteered off and on at the shelter until I turned 18, when I moved into my own apartment and spent the summer caring for my friends animals while they went on vacation. Now that I am 19 years old, I am ready to begin helping animals as a part time job, and am hoping this will be another great space to give back to animals!
