I have always loved taking care of pets, I've watched and cared for all types of dogs and cats and a few birds, If I had the room, I would have a variety of animals, I have a cat right now, but have had several dogs in the past before I moved into to an apartment. I've owned a St Bernard/Lab mix and a MinPin at different times and several other mutts in between. I love pets of all kinds and my neighbors call me the dog whisperer because I can make friends with any animal. I'm in my 70's now, so only caring for small dogs ( under 20 pounds). When just checking in on pets and feeding them, I will always spend some quality time with them.
