Born in Lima, Peru, I have loved animals since before I can remember. Peru, being the land of stray dogs, it made me so sad that not every dog had a home. I would bring a puppy home and think he was all mine but my mom had to release back into the streets at night while I was asleep.
I started staying at a family friends home when they would go away on vacation for weeks on end. It surprises me now taking care of one or two dogs for FPPS clients when my very first overnight consisted of 3 dogs, 3 cats, 2 hamsters and 2 goldfish. I am in the process of obtaining an associates degree at Westchester Community College but hope to move on to a New York State licensed vet tech school.
