I’m an animal lover with experience caring for both dogs and other pets. I raised a golden retriever from a puppy to 2 years old, which gave me hands-on experience with training, daily care, and the energy young dogs require. Later, I spent over 5 years as a live-in nanny, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how to balance different needs. Two of the families I worked for also had pets, so I became very comfortable in multi-pet homes. I still visit one of the families to walk their dogs whenever I can, because caring for animals is something I truly enjoy.
