Originally a dietitian, Nancy turned her love of dogs into a successful social media brand, creating service- and entertainment-oriented pet content that quickly garnered nearly 7k followers and 168k views in the first year. An animal lover herself, Nancy grew up with everything from dogs and cats to iguanas and chinchillas.
