At the office I am known as a "Dog whisperer" - I love to run with them through the office, give them belly rubs and practice tricks.
I never had a dog, but I always felt a special kind of love towards them. Unfortunately my apartment is too small for dogs, so I can't have one, that is why I think, that dog sitting would be the best solution in my case.
I had a cat though! I grew up with one and loved her for 16 years. I love cats just the same.
I am that person, about whom cat owners say "Oh, my cat never comes to other people, look at her sitting on your lap!"
