I have a deep empathy for the disposition of pets. When you're gone, the world around them falls apart. Animals have been there for me when I've felt the same and I'm indebted to return the favor! I grew up with a passionate dog loving family and have been around golden retrievers, black labs, and shelties since infancy. Walking, bathing, and training them was something that always filled my life with joy. In 2019, I adopted Rosie, a 7-year-old Maltese poodle, who became my Emotional Support Animal. Soon, I learned that Rosie was quite anxious herself! Over the years, I've learned how to read her nervous signals and help her cope in stressful situations. As she ages, I’ve adapted to taking care of a senior pet with arthritis treatment and teeth care.
