I used to be a sitting dog's and cat's before. I just stopped for a while and I know the basics you need to take care of a dog's and cat's. Animals are like family and I myself also have a small very high temper tantrum chihuahua named Max. I take him out for walks and to the beach. I can also do that for your lovely pet!
