I grew up in a household with five dogs, two cats, an iguana, several snakes, geckos, and birds of various sizes. The dogs ranged from a mini weenie to a 110 pound male German Shepherd Dog. My 'nephew' is a Pitbull, my 'niece' is a chihuahua. I'm extremely tolerant of whining, barking, and dogs who just want love. I have handled dogs with special needs, including epilepsy, diabetes, and behavioral disorders. I have no pet allergies, and don't mind also checking up on cats, birds, or reptiles. I'm not even scared of pet insects or arachnids. I've been pet, and home, sitting since I was 16, up to one month periods at a time. I'm here to love your babies, whether they have fur, feathers, or even scales!
