My entire life, my family has had animals of all sorts-- cats, dogs, pigs, goats, rabbits, fish, and chickens. So I have grown up around animals and taking care of them. When I turned 13, my parents got me my first dog to take care of by myself. I had to take them out for walks, feed them, and bathe them. As an adult, I have owned and had to take care of my own cats, dogs, and a tortoise up until I was in a living situation that did not allow me to keep my babies. For the past 6 years, I have also been helping out friends and family by house/pet sitting, dropping by houses for restroom visits, taking them to doggie birthday parties and dog parks, and helping pick up and give medications. I genuinely love all animals and enjoy being able to interact with them. So you can rest assured knowing that your friends are be in great hands!
