My name is Natalie and I’m 26 years old. I grew up with a dog of my own and I spent many weekends taking care of a family friend’s animals which included multiple dogs, cats, horses, a rabbit, ducks, chickens and even peacocks. I also would pet sit for many of my neighbor’s cats, dogs and birds. I spent five years volunteering for my local zoo so I am very comfortable around all animals. I graduated college at Jacksonville University where I studied marine science and biology and am now back in town to attend JU for my Master’s in marine science. I have always known I wanted to work with animals when I grew up. My schedule is super flexible around my class schedule and I am available most mornings, evenings, and almost every weekend. I now adopted a dog that absolutely loves to play with other dogs!
