Hi there, I can take care of your pups. I enjoy exercise, and I'm sure your dogs will love to go on a long walk or run. I love dogs of all sizes, and I studied Pavlov in college, so I should be good to go! Cats are also super fun. I can provide some fun enrichment activities for them as well. Thanks, Henry
