I have grown up with animals of all kinds, and foster cats with local rescue groups. I have had dogs my whole life, including a golden retriever who lived for 16 years. My job is actually as the animal manger at my town petco so I'm use to taking care of all sorts of animals not just dogs. I have always loved animals and strive to give my animals the best care as I possibly can, which would be shown to any pet under my care. I have volunteered with rescue groups and have had to give both oral and subcutaneous medications and feel comfortable doing so, so if your pet requires extra attention it will be just another part of loving them. I do work 40 hours a week, typically 1245 to 930 all but Tuesday-Wednesday but would be able to go to your house on my lunch and let the dogs out to go to the bathroom.
