I'm an young man who loves hiking and the outdoors, especially when accompanied by a furry friend. I'm also a passionate writer and love strolling around the town on long walks with dogs while I reflect. I grew up with multiple large dogs and a cat, and have a very high availability for long shifts in or outside my home. I'm also a highly loving and caring person, with a deep enjoyment in meeting the needs of animals- even those that are challenging or intimidating. I think each animal has its own personality, and I'm drawn to the exploration of that so I can suit their needs! I also like to relax, and if this is more a pet's speed I have a sizable apartment with lots of floor space. I can't wait to begin caring for pets of all shapes and sizes.
