I've taken care of my own dogs for over 20 years. My current baby, Tallulah, is 16.5 years old and going strong! You could say I started out small - I've always had Chihuahuas - but I love dogs of all sizes. I often babysit my daughter's 2 larger dogs in Durham, NC, and this summer I spent 2 weeks in Baltimore keeping my son's dog while they traveled cross country. Dogs are joy and I realize I'm happier when I'm around them. I could satisfy my desire to be around more dogs by adopting another one, but I don't want to stress Tallulah, so I thought I'd try Rover. I need to walk more and I have so much love to give.
