I have always had cats and dogs. I recently moved in to an apartment and I had to leave my dog with my ex husband and, I miss him terribly. I want to help a family walk their dog when they're not around to do so. Animals are so important. They are family members! I simply want to help and be with animals! Best, Kathy.
