Claudia B. Pet Care Provider in Basking Ridge, NJ 07920

I have ample experience with cats and dogs having grown up alongside a total of seven dogs and six cats in my extended family—those of which I’ve pet-sat, taken on walks and runs, bathed, restrained, and essentially acted as their sole caretaker at various points in time as I was growing up. I also volunteered at my local animal shelter (Friends of Somerset Regional Animal Shelter) throughout high school, where I took a special interest in working with the dogs that had behavioral issues/anxiety to become socialized and trusting of humans.

I am a rising senior at the University of Pittsburgh, where I study psychology and English writing, particularly in relation to animal assisted therapy and intervention. I plan to pursue these interests with post-doctorate education in comparative psychology with specific focus on ethology and applied animal behavior. As a bonafide animal-lady with a rescued cat of my own (whom I spoil dearly), animal care and welfare hold a special place in my heart, accompanied by intense loyalty to the cause.
