I have own a pet since I was a young child. I currently have a small dog who is 16 years old and a sweet Australian Shepherd who is 3. I have pet sat for friends often and love to be able to spend time with them I have a very flexible schedule and am away from home at most 6 hours at a time. I have the ability to come and go as needed to check in animals I am living in a beautiful and welcoming town home community that, although the yard area is not fenced in, there is a lot of room to walk and run right in front of my front door. Pets can be walked on leashes as well for optimal safety
