Hello, my name is Monica Birko and I am the founder of The Pawffice. Ever since I was little, I have had a special love for animals. I received a Bachelors of Science in Biology to pursue my goal of being a veterinarian. I moved to Ohio to go to grad school, but I ended up getting married and moving to Germany. When I returned home to the states I became involved with a local dog rescue. I have fostered and cared for over 70 dogs, puppies, and cats over the past 10 years, many of which had behavioral and health issues. In late 2015 I decided that working for the rescue was not enough and decided to open up The Pawffice to spend with animals and doing what I love.
