I grew up with pets and am now a proud parent to 3 lovely kitties who are featured on my profile. My fiancé also keeps a live planted tank with a beautiful female betta named Catherine - so I am very competent in fish care. Overall I honestly just love animals, as a kid one of my primary aspirations was simply to adopt stray cats. While I was in grade school I volunteered at a riding school and stables for a couple years and through that work I learned a lot of valuable lessons in animal care. Additionally, while growing up, I was responsible for assisting in the care of my childhood dog, a rambunctious black lab, my specialty was bathing her (she was afraid of running water.) Now, I find myself living with my parents, while I go back to school for my masters degree, and they have a large dog and very small cat of their own. I assist in caring for both of their animals, doing everything from basic daily care to emergency vet visits. I have extensive experience caring for medically needy animals of all types and am comfortable administering medication in various forms.
