I currently have a rabbit as a pet but growing up I had seven dogs! I have taken care of my aunt and uncles' dogs every summer as they went on vacation. I also fed my neighbor's cat on a daily basis for a few months. I love to take care of animals as I was exposed to gentle care and situational awareness at a young age.
