My family has always had a dog ever since I can remember. Now, I have my own dog, Jake. I take Jake on long walks or hikes and to the dog park if he looks like he needs a good run. I also have experience taking care of hyper dogs, older dogs, medicated dogs, and potty training puppies. I also have ample experience dog-sitting for my friends and family when they go out of town for long vacations. My sister also lives with me now and she has a dog named Jackson. He's a dachsund and is a bit shy at first when meeting new dogs, however, he warms up very quickly, especially with Jake around. We also have introduced a cat to the family who is very used to dogs playing with him and knows how to hold his own.
