I grew up on a rural farm with many animals including dogs, and taking care of them always fell to me. Animals have always been able to sense that I like them, and I tend to bond with dogs quickly. My friends have often relied on me to take care of their dogs when they are away -- most recently a two-year-old Irish Wolfhound I have watched when needed for several years. I miss animals very much and would love the opportunity to walk, watch, take care of and play with your pets when needed.
