I am an animal person through and through. I started animal care while I was in High School working as a groomer, walker and doggy-day care attendant. I worked there for three years and enjoyed it thoroughly working with pets is such a pleasure. I worked at Petsmart for two years as well helping in petcare when I wasn't in the salon. Being out on the sales floor was one of my favorite tasks, being able to help pet parents is very rewarding. I feel very comfortable with all types of critters. I grew up on a farm so I am no stranger to livestock either. I am also a 4-H leader and help local youth learn more about their animal project areas, it is one of my great passions.
