It’s important to know any allergies, designated potty/sleep/eat times as well. Other important things to know is also any medications they take, stimulants that they like and habits that they may have.

Pet care experience

I have taken care of many dogs since I was in high school! After adopting my own dog, I realized that I loved to spend my free time with them. I had also dogsat for those who needed help through my neighborhood community facebook page, “South Silly”. Whenever I dogsat, I would take the dogs out for potty breaks in my fenced yard where they can freely roam around!
