I have taken care of family friends pets when they go away on holidays, this included 2 dogs, 3 cats and a guinea pig. I have cared for my own dogs, my friends dogs too. When one friend had housing issues i took in their dog for 6 months until they were able to find a house that allowed pets. My skills include, walking, brushing, bathing, cuddling and i enjoy training dogs new ticks/ obedience depending on if the primary owners would like that. For example sitting and waiting before crossing roads, i don't allow dogs off lead until we have formed a bond and if the primary carer is comfortable then i will allow the off lead :)
