I've been dog-sitting/walking since I was very young. I would go straight from the school bus to the neighbor's house to let out their two dogs and one of my favorite parts was leaving them a detailed note (maybe a little too detailed about their #2s!) I have done a lot of in-home overnight sitting and friends' or neighbors', including dog-sitting for a pup with lots of special care needs, whose person then recommended me to another pup owner who I watched many times as she travelled for work. I have experience tending chickens and goats and am happy to add those to the chore list if you've got them! I've always loved animals of all kinds, but dogs have remained my favorite and I often joke that my motto/goal in life is to pet a dog a day.
