Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs and lived with them until I moved abroad at 25. Growing up with dogs has given me a deep understanding of their needs and personalities. I currently have a Jack Russell, Cesare, back home in Italy. Here in Boston, I have a cat, Fiona. My partner and I are both animal lovers and help each other to take care of dogs and cats. We mostly consider this as hobby, as we love to stay close to animals!
