I have a had dogs all my life when I was a teenager I would house sit and take care of dogs. I wanted to be a Veterinarian but didn't because of life changes. I have never lived my life without one and yes I am one of those people that will treat my dog like my children I believe in nurturing them just like they are your child.. I have raised Pits and most people think they are not good pets I beg to differ, it depends on the caregiver... I was just saying to myself that I would so love to do this again and I came across this add not even looking for it and I so had to jump on it.. You will find I also have seven children that I have raised, and they are always saying mom you need to get paid doing that since you do it for free all of the time (which I have been doing) I have several references of people I have worked for and people who know me. You can look me up on Facebook if you like and see I am very spiritual person. I just know there really is no price for caring for something or someone. Its about my best at what I do and it would not be a chore!!!!!
