I love being someone that not only the owner...

I have been a pet sitting since I was 15. I enjoy walks myself and would love a dog to join me. I love animals but am unable to own my own pet due to living in an apartment. I love taking care of pets and since I can't have my own, I would love to help take care of other pets.
