I have had many pets throughout my life. When I was a teen I watched my neighbors 20 plus animals for them when they went on vacation every year. Including 5 huskys 17-ish cats and a bird. I more recently, worked at a doggie daycare with 50 plus dogs on somedays. I walked dogs, as well, and took them for overnights at my place, while with that company. By far, one of the most enjoyable and rewarding jobs I've ever had. I also did pet visits for cats and such when those would come up. I loved meeting and befriending so many diffrent and beautiful animals
