I have had pets ever since I was three and I have had two dogs a Jack Russel Terrier and a Scottish Fox Terrier. These breeds of dog have a high energy level and requires a lot of mental stimulation to keep them from getting board or bad behavior. I have also helped my roommates and friends take care of a wide variety of their pets from snakes, turtles, cats, chinchillas, rats, and dogs. I have also dealt with many grooming tasks for pets like cleaning habitat areas, clipping claws, brushing fur/hair, baths, and cleaning up after the occasional accident. A lot of my photos in my profile are of other peoples pets I have taken care of so I would definitely send you photos of your beloved pets while you are gone.
