People don’t understand how important it is to know your pets are well taken care of when we have to leave them , peace of mind is a must that they are happy and safe . 40 years of having dogs and horses myself I know this , as I would never go away in fear they wouldn’t be taken care of , many call this stupid but us pet owners know different . I have lived on a farm all my life originally from England and now 20 years in Florida ,so the cold and hot weather Christmas Day a normal day is always a work day ,dirt and smells of animals comes with the job, pet sitting is not a job but a passion .
