Rubeus Hagrid
As a boy, Hagrid was expelled from Hogwarts when Tom Riddle blamed him for opening the Chamber of Secrets, which resulted in the death of a student named Myrtle. Dumbledore convinced the headmaster at the time to let him stay at Hogwarts as gamekeeper. The gentle half giant was later entrusted to teach students Care of Magical Creatures. His love for monsters continued to get him into trouble, but he was the one who gave Harry a pet owl, Hedwig, and if not for Hagrid's Hippogriff Buckbeak, Sirius Black would not have had an escape from the Dementors. Hagrid remained loyal to Dumbledore until the end, and carried his body to be interred at his funeral.
