I have had dogs for 40 years and have taken care of pets for my friends and family. I am happiest when I am around animals, especially dogs. I have two cats and two dogs that live in my home. My family and I are all dog lovers but I am obsessed with them.I work as a nurse but can always find extra time to spend with an animal that needs my love and attention.I know there are dog owners out there who just don't have someone they can rely on. I can be that person and quickly adjust my schedule in case of an emergency. I rely on my nursing background when caring for my own dogs, and would do the same for any dog, especially a special needs dog.
