I'm a new Minnesota transplant! I spent the last two years serving as a Teach For America corps member in Southside Chicago. I have grown up a true animal lover, caring for pets my entire life, ranging from hamsters to horses and dogs of all sizes. There is nothing I love more than an animal's company, be it throwing a ball around in the yard or taking my dogs on a hike in the mountains. My family owns five dogs of our own (Pirate, Sandy, Rosie, Bean, and Tito)! As a recent graduate and city-dweller, getting a dog of my own is still a somewhat distant dream, so I have decided to see who I can help out by offering my services to families in the area.
