About our guest:
I had to leave my country in April of 2014 to live in the United States, back then it was only me with a boring Bachelor degree against the world. During my first year here, I had so many jobs but nothing made me truly happy, I started considering getting back to my career but by that time I was sure that was not what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I had always been fascinated with animals in general, and always wanted to work with animals but never had the opportunity so I thought that was the moment and place to try it! After working for big companies for a while, I made the best decision ever! Starting my own business and that’s exactly what happened. I’ve dedicated the last 4 years to educate myself to provide my clients with the best pet care experience. I opened my first business in New Jersey and grew it to the point that I successfully sold it when I decided to move to Chicago, now I am the proud owner of Chicawoof! and I am so happy to be one of the lucky ones that can do what they love.
