I started pet sitting when I was in high school. Several of my mother's friends had cats that I would feed and care for while they were away. To make extra money in college I began to walk and the board a local Shiba Inu; a gig I kept until I graduated and started working full time. I have always loved animals but was unable to have any as a child because of allergies some of my family members have. Luckily, I have been able to rectify my childhood problem of living without pets. My wife and I currently have two dogs (a beagle and a havanese/poodle mix), three cats, two rabbits and a conure. I also have continued to help other people in my life by walking and watching their dogs and other assorted pets. I have a strange work schedule and am home all day on Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays, and I work until four each other day of the week.
