My Why...

Update posted 3 hours ago

People often assume this work is all about the animals—and it is—but what keeps everything moving, every single day, is the people.


Whenever I interview someone for a position in the shelter or in veterinary medicine, I always ask the same question: “Why do you want to do this work?” And almost every time, the answer is the same—“Because I love animals.”

And I get that. I love animals too.

But what I’ve learned over the years is that the people who choose this work because they love animals are some of the most compassionate, empathetic, and selfless individuals you will ever meet. They show up on the hardest days. They care deeply, even when it hurts. And they give so much of themselves to every animal that comes through our doors.


Right now, my team isn’t even feeling their best. Allergies are hitting hard, energy is low, and no one is at 100%. But that hasn’t stopped them—they’re still giving 110% to the animals who rely on them.

That’s who I’m representing this year.

I’m spending the night in a kennel for the second year in a row to support a team that sets the standard for animal care, kindness, compassion, and teamwork. A team that deserves to be supported just as much as the animals they care for.

If you’ve ever wanted to show appreciation for the people behind the scenes—the ones doing the hard, emotional, and often unseen work—this is your chance.

Help me reach my goal of $2,000 by April 18th. Every dollar goes toward supporting the animals and the incredible team who never stop showing up for them.

 

🐾 I’m doing it again… and I need your support! 🐾

For the second year, I’ll be participating in the Chesapeake Humane Society Slumber Pawty—where I’ll be spending the night sleeping in a kennel alongside one of our shelter dogs.

As the Shelter Manager, I don’t just visit these kennels—I see what they mean every single day. I see the dogs who are scared and unsure. The ones who light up when someone finally stops at their door. The ones who have been waiting far too long for a home of their own.

This night isn’t about a challenge or a stunt, it’s about stepping into their world, even just for a little while, and raising critical funds to help us continue saying yes to the animals who need us most.

This year, I’m proud to be representing our incredible staff—the people who show up every day, no matter how hard it gets, to care for every animal that walks through our doors.

My goal is to raise $2,500, and I can’t do it without you.

Every donation helps provide medical care, food, enrichment, and second chances for animals in our community.

💛 Will you help me make this the most impactful Slumber Pawty yet?
