I have two adorable cats of my own and am a previous dog owner. I have plenty of experience taking care of animals as a result. I used to love taking the dog for a walk or to the dog park; she enjoyed the exercise and so do I! I have also cared for family's dogs while working domestically as a Nanny or Family Assistant.
