I grew up around animals and I love them! I cat sit for my friend often so has a cat named Mr. Bigsby who is a beautiful black cat! I have dog sat before throughout life and I'm not squeamish at all! I'm fine with playing with the animals, walking them, feeding and doing whatever will make your pet and you comfortable!
