Growing up, I had dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and a bunny. Though I don't have any pets of my own right now due to me living in a one bedroom apartment I love being able to watch them when giving the opportunity.
I have been doggy sitting for my aunt for 3 years now. She has 2 blue heelers and a mastiff. So I am used to big dogs, but I can also pet sit any dog and any cat. We have 2 dogs and a cat in our home.
