I am a former owner of a golden retriever and current cat owner. Unfortunately, my current cat has a heart condition so I am afraid to get a dog for fear of my cat's heart. I am willing to give animals medicine, for we give my cat his medicine twice a day. I miss having a dog in my life and look forward to taking care of yours! I understand how your animals are a part of your family and can even be a child to you. I love making sure you don't need to worry about your loved ones while you are away.
