I have been taking care of dogs for 5 years, as my own dog is 5. I will administer medications and do not have any issues with doing so. I am currently working part time and going to school full time. My husband is also home during the days so bathroom breaks will be given on a frequent basis. We currently live in an apartment on the third floor. There are two flights of stairs to climb up. If dogs have trouble with climbing stairs we will help carry them as best we can.
