I spend times with my cats, my family care for cats and dogs all these years.
We play with them, snuggle them, ear scratching , lap sitting and walk them. The only thing I don't do is the pet has to not eat human food, in another words, I provide pet sitting services for pets that consume pet food and that are toilet trained.
