​About me:

 

Ever since I was little, I've always loved animals.  I started walking dogs at age twelve for the Berkeley Humane Society, and did additional volunteering in the cat rooms. All through middle school I spent all of my free time volunteering at the Milo Foundation. In addition to spending all of my free time at the shelter, I also starting fostering dogs and cats that needed extra love and attention so that I could help them thrive.  

In 2016, I  graduated from Chico State with a Bachelors in Animal Science. While I was in undergrad, I had internships at the University's dairy, as well as their sheep and goat unit. I also interned at the Kirshner Wildlife Reserve. After graduation I went to South Africa, where I volunteered at a Wildlife Rehabilitation Center. (Moholoholo). Upon my return, I became an adoption counselor at the Peninsula SPCA where I spent a year helping dogs, cats, reptiles and small animals find their forever homes. 

Currently, I am a receptionist and veterinary assistant at a Holistic Veterinary Clinic. In my free time, I walk dogs and pet sit for some amazing clientele all around the Peninsula. I currently set up bookings in advance for overnight stays, and am also available on a first come bases for regular walks or drop in check-ins. 

Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions you may have.
