Meet Laura, a compassionate 28-year-old recent graduate from the University of Waterloo's Psychology program. Growing up in a close-knit family in the Kitchener-Waterloo area, she has always had a soft spot for animals and believes that caring for a pet can teach responsibility and empathy to children. Now working as a childhood development specialist, Laura is on a mission to help families adopt small pets, like hamsters, to enrich their lives and create lasting memories together.
