I spent 7 years working full time as a nanny, and many of the families I worked for had pets (dogs, cats, fish) as well. I had to juggle my responsibilities of caring for the children and making sure the pets were taken care of, too. I would often take the dogs on walks or to the park with the kids in tow. I’m very comfortable walking dogs, cleaning up after them, feeding them, giving them tons of cuddles, and just generally loving them.
