I've always had dogs growing up and I have dog sat plenty of times for my parents when they go out of town. Sometimes I drive to their house to watch the dogs or they drop their dogs off with me I've also watched friends animals and family friends dogs Having dogs all my life I've learned how important it is to take them out a lot to walk and play to get out their energy, keep them on a feeding schedule and I've also had experience with giving medicine and caring for sick/older dogs
