I have loved and care for animals my whole life. I volunteered at a horse rescue from ages 10-15 and worked at a pet store from age 15-20. After graduating high school I perused and graduated with a bachelors degree in wildlife biology from Coastal Carolina University. No matter your loved ones shape or size, scales or fur, 4 legs or no legs, I’m here for all your animals needs and wants ! Dogs/ cats: Growing up we had about 4 dogs in the house at one time. My family always owned large breed dogs (mastiffs, saint Bernard’s, pit bulls, Akitas) and we also fostered dogs for about 4 years having as many as seven dogs in the house. I had one cat growing up and currently own two cats and one dog. In the pet store I worked in we had a doggie daycare where I supervised ~30 dogs at one time. Handling dogs my whole life I have become accustomed to specialized care for puppies, seniors and special needs. I am able to administer medications, help potty train, provide extra comfort to my senior critters, and do nail trims/ touch up haircuts and grooming. Small animals: I currently own 2 ferrets and 2 bunnies and grew up with 4 bunnies and 3 ferrets. In the pet store I worked in growing up, I also conducted animal husbandry and am familiar/ comfortable caring for small animals such as hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, chinchillas, ferrets etc. I am able to administer medications, clean enclosures, and do nail trims. Birds: I have very little experience handling birds but, am open to caring for them if needed. I am not uncomfortable with birds just have less handling experience.
