As someone who has grown up around all kinds of animals from small chihuahuas and kittens, to horses and goats, the idea that animals are just pets has never occurred to me. I was raised to see them rather as family and that is how I intend to treat any pet I have the opportunity of caring for. If hired, I would make it my top priority to ensure that your pet is given the proper exercise, feeding, grooming, socializing, and most importantly making him/her feel loved at all times. My experience with growing up taking care of multiple animals at once has given me a clear understanding of how to care for any dog (or cat) small or large. Thank you for the consideration!
