I have had dogs all of my life and have been helping friends and family take care of their own pets for as long as I can remember. I currently have my own pet, Rita, a border collie/mix that is 3 years old. My current roommate also has a dog as well, Eve, a dushand/mix that is a year old. They are both very loving and sweet dogs who get along with others. They are both kept locked up during the day when we are not home. But when we get home, they are taken on walks to our apartment community dog park as well as the local dog park. I have grown up with dogs for all of my life, understanding how much love and affection is need for these lovely animals. I value the connection I share with the animals that come into my life and I know I would do the same with your pets!
