Other than loving dogs and cats, what makes you a good fit to be a "Pawfect" Pet Sitter for our company?*

I deserve more respect than others*

Brutus, a rescue mutt, is anxious /fearful around strangers. While you are walking Brutus, a stranger ignores their polite request to not pet the dog. They give you lip service on how all dogs love them and reach out and in a split second Brutus bites their hand drawing blood.

What do you do?

What would your sequence of events be?**

The dog you are walking keeps sitting down on their way home. You have 15 minutes to get home before the service ends or you will be late to the rest of your scheduled visits if the dog doesn't start walking asap.

What would you do to assist the dog in this situation?*

You work Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm, and would love to enjoy some much needed Netflix time. One of your fellow employees has significant car troubles and cannot complete their walk/pet visit schedule that afternoon.
