I take care of my pets and the beloved pets of others who entrust them to me, I carefully follow instructions given to me as to ensure that I properly care for older or younger pets, and I understand the importance of proper dietary care for dogs of all breeds and ages. In the case of pets with special needs I have cared for blind and/or deaf pets for a short period of time in the past as well as dogs with differing forms of vestibular disease (vertigo) , which is the loss of balance due to deteriorating motor function usually seen in older animals. Even if your pet has needs that I have not yet encountered I will gladly take the challenge and care for them as pertaining to any instruction you may have for me no matter how strict in order to make sure your best friend is healthy, comfortable and well taken care of until your return home to a happy, loving friend who will gladly await your return.
