I have had animals since I was born. Growing up, I had dogs, cats, guinea pigs, chinchillas, fish, lizards, and turtles, and I cared for each one! My whole life, I have absolutely loved all animals, including the creepy crawly and scaley. I grew up caring for all my animals independently, including the daily chores that come with animals, such as giving medications, grooming, and everything else. I currently have 2 French bulldogs, a cat, 2 turtles, and a bearded dragon. When I was 18, I started volunteering at an animal shelter. I continued to do so almost every other weekend until I was 22. In my time taking care of animals, I have had dogs from 6 weeks to 19 years old. I also have fostered upwards of 20 neonatal, orphaned kittens. The youngest kittens I have cared for were less than a day old, and I took care of them until they were 8 weeks of age, when they got spayed/neutered and adopted. In taking care of neonatal animals, I have given oral medication, eye medication, and injections. I am so excited to meet more animals and to have the chance to take care of all the animals I can!
