Lara

I love animals and enjoy learning new things. I have dogs, fish, chickens, lizards, horses, and a tortoise named Tamale. I grew up in Durban, South Africa, where I spent much of my time adventuring and exploring. This passion for adventure continues in the U.S., where I explore with my family whenever we get the chance. From Anza Borrego to Baja, the Pacific Northwest to Moab, I’m always on the move.I love off-roading in my 4Runner, camping in remote locations, and riding my Husqvarna FE501 dirt bike. I also have two Jack Russell Terriers (Marmite and Bacardi) and one Australian Cattle Dog (Luca).In addition to my love for animals, I have a wide range of hobbies, including reading, embroidery, macramé, gardening, homesteading, and paddleboarding.I'm passionate about working with animals and providing the best care for pets who don’t have a voice to advocate for themselves.
