I grew up on a farm, the youngest of seven. The animals were my best friends and I have had a dog every year of my life (and some cats.) Also, I am a grown woman who is active and more than reliable. With a bookkeeping business on the side, I am able to create my own hours. Getting out of my home (office) to walk a pet, is the perfect break in my day. Bookkeeping keeps me busy 18 hours a week and I have had my clients for over two years (25 clients,) so my schedule is my own at the moment. I have a special place in my heart for dogs......and I do know the guilt and pain of thinking of them home, waiting for us to come home. There is nothing better than greeting a dog who is so happy for company and activity. Their affection and loyalty is the truest there is.
