About: I grew up with dogs and even though cats are more my speed now, I still love to get down in the dirt to play with the puppos. I'm currently unemployed, so I have all the time in the world to love up on and take care of your precious four legged child. Keeping to your pet's set routine is the best way to care for your pets. It will help with the separation anxiety and worry your pet will feel in your absence.
