I’ve had dogs in my life for over 15 years. I raised my Bichon Maltese from four months old and once rescued an abandoned American Staff from the forest on a rainy day during Covid. Because of the plane’s breed restrictions, I had to leave him with my ex but still a loved one boyfriend. He is still thriving, but I deeply miss him every day—it’s a pain that I can’t hug him anymore. I don’t want to replace him, but one of my client’s dogs, Bean, became like my own. We raised her together during her first year, so I do build strong bonds if the care is ongoing. I love having animals around: not just dogs, cats and all the rest! So if you have other ones to take care of, please let me know. I don’t see it as extra work. I love every breed, size, and temperament without exception.
