I grew up in a house full of dogs and cats, plus 16 years of dog-walking and pet-sitting around the neighborhood as well as for family and friends. I have found that when the pets get to stay where they're already familiar with life, it works best, so I'd rather come care for them where they are comfortable! I love being outside, so walks and play time are for sure - as well as lots of petting and attention, because I miss my own pups from years gone by! Funny enough, my mother has also gone into the caretaking industry, so after all I suppose it runs in my family. I'm always looking to add more furry friends to my mix - they sure have a way of making day-to-day life so much better :).
