I've always loved animals since I was a child and vice versa. I have two dogs of my own, (Bijou and Tank) whom I love more then life itself. I truly believe that humans could learn from animals. If we could only love as unconditionally as they do, the world would be a much better place. I am vegetarian- I have felt from a very young age that it was wrong to eat something that could feel emotions such as fear, love, happiness, etc... I only mention this to try to convey my love for animals. I am no expert by any means, but I have read books on animal behaviour because it's of interest to me. Information is great...but passion and heart are the essentials that make up a good pet sitter.
