I’ve owned three cats throughout my childhood growing up. Each at different times and very different in personalities but all have taught me a lot about caring for a pet. They’re another living being and another member of the family and should be treated as such. I was the neighborhood dog walker/pet sitter in the neighborhood I grew up in. I started when I was 11 and haven’t stopped taking care of furry friends since. Families have relied on me to let their pets out, visit them, stay with them, take them on walks, clean them and/or their cage, feed them, etc. I am well versed and have experienced several different kinds of situations from 250lb dogs to tiny gerbils.
