Hi! A little bit about me - I grew up in a two dog household where twice daily walks and yard play were part of our chores. I have had cats in adulthood, one of which I leash trained! My last dog sitting job was with two Great Pyrenees and an indoor cat, so I feel confident with all shapes, sizes, and species!
