I've been around pets my whole life and know they are part of the family. I love all animals! My first pet was Peanuts the cat who lived to the ripe old age of 20! He was a great cat. Murphy, named after my Irish Grandpa, was my 170+lb Bernese Mountain Dog I grew up with. He was the biggest teddy bear you could ever have even though he thought he was the tiniest little lap dog. That dog showed love more than I knew was possible. I also had a 30 gallon freshwater fish tank with multiple species as well. My black cat Pancake has never given me any bad luck and is a frisky little guy who loves to play rough. A couple of cat scratches or play bites won't bother me in the name of fun! I know your pets are important to you, as mine were to me and it can be hard to leave them for work or going out of town. I have housesat and watched many of my friend's pets over the years both dogs and cats, and even hamsters, with no problems whatsoever. I will take exceptional care of your little family members as if they were my own and I can't wait to play with and spend some quality time with them.
