I have had and loved dogs my entire life, but am taking a break right now because of frequent travel. My dogs and cats were my kids, and I miss them so much - I love to care for other animals to get my fix :) Walking and running with dogs is lots of fun for me. I would love your animals to sleep with me if they're allowed. I totally support and comply with diet restrictions, supplements, and rules. Since I teach Yoga, I'm able to come home during the day. I pet sat over 25 years ago when I didn't have dogs for a couple of years, and took care of friends' pets even when I had my own animals. This year I petsat 2 cats and a big dog for over 5 months. I treated them as if they were my own and I would do that for you also.
