About Me

Hi, I’m Zayra Martinez — a U.S. Navy veteran and Computer Information Technology student with a passion for technology, cybersecurity, and animal welfare. This project combines my technical background with something close to my heart: helping people find the perfect pet companion.

The Purpose of This Website

Pet Matchmaker is designed to help individuals and families find pets that best fit their lifestyle, home environment, and preferences. By answering a few quick questions, users receive a personalized match score and recommendations based on their unique needs and capabilities.

My goal with this project is to raise awareness about responsible pet ownership and make the adoption process more informed, thoughtful, and compassionate. Whether you’re a first-time pet owner or an experienced animal lover, I hope this tool helps you make a connection that lasts a lifetime.
