I've had plenty of personal experience caring for pets since a young age. I've cared for and walked german shepherds,a boxer, a chow chow, a Yorkshire terrier and a terrier mixbreed, some of which were puppies at the time, others were senior dogs who needed extra care due to medical issues. I've also personally owned 3 cats, two of which were rescues thus I have lots of experience with cats of different behaviours and attitudes. I've had experience handling sick pets too and have no trouble giving them medicine or extra care if needed. I've never had any trouble with pets and usually they are quite receptive to me but I'm willing to take as much time as needed to befriend any and all pets.
