I am a professor full time at UMD here in Duluth, I have my summers off and during the year someone from the family is always home, so we have flexible schedules! Many of my classes, I teach on line. I have been walking and caring for pets for the past three years. It is a family part time job! Our children love to care and love on your pet, they will never be lonely and will get lots of attention! Of course if your 'family' member doesn't like children they don't have to be helpers, but they sure do love to! Just wanted to add that we are cat people too! -with a very sweet kitty of our own! No place to actually say that on rover.
