When I was 11 years old, my dad came home one night with a little puppy that a woman had given him in the parking lot of a bar. I immediately fell in love with the little guy and would spend every moment possible with him. He had an accident shortly after he came into our lives and required around the clock care. I quickly volunteered to spend my summer vacation hand feeding him and making sure he would make a full recovery, which he eventually did! This story is just one example of how much I love animals, especially dogs, and the lengths that I am willing to go to ensure their well-bring. I sincerely and enthusiastically do as much as I can to provide a safe and fun visit for the furry four-legged guys. Since then I have continued to care for my parents' two dogs when they are out of town and I often watch coworkers' and friends' dogs. I also have experience house sitting for households that have cats.
