I grew up with animals and have always had a special place in my heart for them. I had 2 cats and 2 large dogs growing up, so I'm very experienced with both. And no, I don't prefer one over the other! I was always the one in the family who trained our pets and took them for runs/walks. My mom and I were the pet caretakers of the family, and I get my love for them from her. I'm fairly active and I'm 6 feet tall so I can handle most dogs, including large ones. I'm very patient and gentle with animals and have so so much love to give them. I just adopted a sweet little kitty and named her Billie Jean. I promise I will treat your baby as if it is my own!
