I grew up with dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, and turtles. I love dogs and like playing with them. They (almost) always like me too! I have experience with chihuahuas, yorkies, chow-chows, lhapso-apsos, poodle mixes, and siberian huskies. As for cats, I grew up with orange, siamese, and other kinds too. I have good instincts when it comes to caring for animals. I'd be happy to walk and even run with your dog...or cat? I volunteered at an animal shelter when I was in high school and frequented trips to Petco and the like. I'll give your dog my undivided attention and treat him or her as my own.
