I've been an animal lover all of my life. Growing up with big dogs since I was 3 years old, going to day camps every summer at the Wisconsin Humane Society as a kid, and then becoming a Veterinary Assistant and eventually Manager of a local clinic are just a sprinkle of my background. I moved to San Diego for a brief time and walked dogs for a living for about 8 months until I eventually could not do it anymore due to a job at the time. I now own two twin boys (cats) who are my Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Michelangelo and Splinter, which is why your dogs will probably not be a good fit in my house (but they think they're dogs so you can try!). I've always been great with dogs and love to walk, love, play, and groom! I'm skilled in the medical side of things as well with my veterinary background (which is always a plus). I'm originally from Milwaukee, WI, but have lived in a variety of places and am now in Phoenix, AZ!
