ABOUT ME

When I was a child, my mother routinely brought home all types of misfit pets, an experience which began my lifelong passion for animals. At age five I started riding horses and was immediately hooked on the serenity of being surrounded by animals. Visiting my horse and the barn dogs became a part of my daily routine, my happy place. I always knew that I wanted dogs of my own, and the first thing I did when I got my own place was adopt Ivy, my Border Collie mix. Ivy continues to bring such joy into my life; she has taught me patience, trust, and forgiveness. She inspired me to help other dogs in need, and I have spent the last several years working as a foster for a local dog rescue. There, I have discovered a troubling fact: many dogs are surrendered due to the owner not having the time to provide proper care. This ultimately led me to begin Wagging Warriors, affordable and reliable pet care services for those in need.
