It seems as though this would be more for myself than the people I'm dog sitting for, because I have severe social anxiety. I've found that dogs are extremely therapeutic for me to be around. They always calm me down and help me focus, they give me confidence. I just love animals so much, but dogs are my absolute favorite. Anyone who knows me will tell you this. I also have years of experience from family members, friends, and neighbors allowing me to house sit for their animals. I'm not a dog whisperer and i did not go to veterinary school, but I do have a lot of love in my heart for them and I know how to treat them. True compassion and genuine love is not something that can be taught in schools, it comes from the heart.
