I have always been an animal person which showed from childhood until now! I was raised loving animals and would even save birds or mice my cats brought home. I now live in Fargo attending NDSU, living with one roommate and my new kitten! Growing up I was responsible for not only helping with my own dogs and when they had puppies, but neighbors’ and friends’ dogs as well. I have watched all shapes and sizes of dogs and never met a dog I have disliked. I also go on walks often and always make sure dogs under my care receive enough exercise. Besides dogs I love cats as well! I have had cats since I was born and have always formed strong connections with them. I also watched multiple neighbors cats growing up. In Fargo I have watched my sister’s cats and am trusted by her friends to check on their cats. I have also opened my apartment to my parents’ and sister’s dogs whenever needed to help out. I have taken care of all ages of pets from new born puppies to my dog on her last days. Besides watching pets I have volunteered at Homeward Animal Shelter and socialized cats there. This has taught me to stay patient and never push a pet past what they are comfortable with. I would love to meet any loved pet and treat them as if they were my own!
