I've always had pets. In fact my parents and I were obsessed to the point of having birds, cats and dogs at the same time. I'm live in a small apartment right now and cannot get a dog of my own (space and time restrictions) but I would still love to spend time with them. That is one of the primary reasons I'm trying out Rover. I've had taken care of huskies and mixed breed dogs in the past and can definitely help out to make sure your pet does not feel lonely and gets his days worth of fun when you're away. All while putting a smile on my face.
