I have been an avid animal lover for as long as I could remember. I grew up always having animals in the house (mainly cats and dogs). Right now, I have a 10-year-old mutt named Liberty. She is quite the diva, but I adore her all the same. I had worked at a doggy day care for a year (2009-2010). I have also taken on a few pet sitting jobs with friends and family in the past, as well as other great opportunities. My passion and love for the well-being of animals has been extended into my professional career. I have volunteered with an organization aiding with adoption days and dog walking. Recently, I have started graduate school in the field of anthrozoology and with this degree, I hope to work as an animal welfare activist.
