Since I was a baby, I had always had pets in the house. I personally started helping with pet care (brushing, bathing, walks, feeding, etc) when we had two Akitas. I also have had experience with cats, sugar gliders, chickens, fish, various "rodents" and even scorpions and tarantulas. I've cared for other friend's and neighbors pets over the years while they took trips and loved to meet new fluffy friends with their own new personalities. I provided basics like scooped litter boxes and feedings to walks and pool time depending on what the pet loved and needed. I currently care for a single cocker spaniel but I make sure he is healthy, brushed, and active! I work full time from home starting at 4pm so I am most available during the day for check-ins, walks, and care. My back yard is fenced in and a decent size. I have lots of toys, dog-safe bubbles, and even a small kiddie pool. It has a pavilion too should your dog need a shade break. Indoors, I keep most doors closed should your pet be the kind who likes to get into trash cans or hampers (we all know those pets). I also have spare bowls for feeding and water as well as a large dog sized cage should they be cage trained.
