I have been pet sitting for as long as I've been providing childcare, as many families have pets of their own. I have also taken many side jobs watching some very sweet dogs, cats, and even birds. Furthermore, I had a cat from the age of 3 till 21, so in a way, you could say I've been taking care of pets my whole life.
