I have dog-sat for a few family friends throughout my life. Though, I did not personally grow up with a dog in my house; I learned how to take care of dogs through my friends. When I have free time, I like to go to the local animal shelter and walk a few dogs. It brings a smile on my face when I take those dogs for a walk because the dogs are so excited and happy to go out and play. When taking care of dogs, I like to write down the routine and specifics of the dog in order to ensure happiness for the dog and its owner. I am willing to travel to homes to take care of the dog. Unfortunately, I cannot take any dogs to my house due to owner not allowing any dogs in the house or yard.
