I used to do stay at home dog sitting of some of my family and family friend’s dogs. This included staying with dogs for a few nights and days, feeding them, walking them around the neighborhood, picking up their waste and giving them baths. Each dog came with specific instructions which also made it easy for me to provide care for them. For me, doing our best to take time to understand each animal’s needs and personalities is important in order to make them feel loved and cared for
