Hello my name is Kathlyn and I am 23 years old. I have had cats in my family pretty much all of my life but I have babysat since last year for my next door neighbour and have babysat her kids but have also babysat her dog and her friends dog at the same time and technically her fish too. I feel more comfortable with dogs if they get to know me more and more, more often so that I know that the dog will be tame with me.
