About Me

A little bit About me as a person: 

  • I personally would love to rescue every animal that I cross paths with.
  • I have experience with rehabilitating cats and dogs of all ages.
  • I am a proud dog mom to Miracle a American Staffshire terrier.
  • I am always willing to learn and improve.

I graduated high school in 2021 not knowing what i wanted to do with my life. To this day i still do not know. However, What i do know is animals have been a constant for me. I grew up with 23 cats and 4 dogs which most have since passed away. Since I moved away from my parents place I have successfully rescued and rehoused 10 cats and 3 dogs. My personal goal is to one day own a farm rescue for horses, dogs, cats, and ETC...

I love traveling and i want to experience the world along side my faithful companions. I don't travel unless they can join me on the adventures.
