I have owned dogs since I was three. My grandfather raised and trained greyhounds and passed that knowledge along to me. I have owned a cat for the past 5 years. I also have experience with turtles, fish, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, mice/rats and birds as well as goats, horses, chickens, and sheep. I work full time on third shift as a nursing assistant, so I am available during the day (and for potty breaks at night) to take care of your fur children. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I have access to one if need be. I live alone, but I have a 15lb, 4 year old dog who loves other animals. She is not aggressive in any way and loves to meet new playmates. We go for daily walks and go to different locations depending on what we would like to see (woods versus bike paths, that sort of thing). Spoiling is mandatory.
