I have tons of animals myself from 5 dogs and four cats and a ferret and cat. I’m 20 years old and I just love being around animals. Also have had nervous dogs myself so I know how to work with them as well. I’ll make sure everything is in order when I’m being a sitter and work strictly to your schedule. As far as the walker part I’m definitely good with that :). My dog has the harness type of leash so I know how to put those on for ones who don’t like to put on collars. I’ve had plenty of experience with animals I nursed plenty of puppies and kitties for when their mother was slacking so I am very aware of how to do that as well.
