Animals have been in my life since my earliest memories. From the age of about 5 onward my family had a steady pack of 5-7 wonderful dogs, and a revolving cast of birds, turtles, cats, hamsters, mice and rabbits. I feel fortunate to have inherited my mom's heart for animals as a result. Through this, I have experience with daily feedings, walkings, and as well know how to wash and groom. I am able to handle more than dog at once and to establish boundaries and respect. Since moving to the city, I haven't been able to care for a dog of my own and find myself missing the joy, patience, love, growth, and wisdom they bring into a person's life and would be honored to care for yours.
