I have spent most of my life around golden retrievers. After school I'd watch over our young dog, giving her constant attention and playing with her outside. A family friend asked me to look after her three cats for 8 days. I would check in on the cats, feed them, clear the litter boxes, and give them some company. Later, I thought this was something I could do as a job. I like to spend time with dogs and I feel especially close to cats.
