There has never been a time in my life that I haven't been exposed to animals, particularly dogs. I grew up with dogs in the house, up to 6 at a time! All of them rescue animals or animals that were removed from abusive situations. I started house sitting for dogs and cats at the age of 14 for neighbors and family friends and am experienced with administering medication and providing special care. If you are concerned about a skittish pup, I can give them the love they need!
