Information Colleen L. would like to know about your pet
Yes, it is always important to know at least a bit about pets ahead of time. It helps with antipication of walking in the front door and establishes what to expect.

I can take them on walks. I can sit on a porch and hang out. I will play fetch. I will scrtach, rub, or brush them.
