I recently started my own house/pet sitting business when the veterinary clinic I worked for decided to shut down overnight boarding. I had worked for the clinic for almost 4 years and most of the regular clients absolutely loved me. I became busy quite fast, and when I finally left the clinic to work elsewhere, I took a lot of those clients with me, simply because of how well their pets know me and how well I take care of them. I started becoming very familiar with animals at a young age; I grew up with three large breed dogs, one of which, a German Shepherd, became pregnant and had 9 puppies. Taking care of the puppies was usually my task. I've always had a bright passion for animals and as soon as I was old enough to work, I found a job at a dog boarding kennel. I loved every minute and told myself no other job would make me happier than those involving animals.
