Creature Comforts: A Pet Sitters Days

How is it that the simplest things in life offer the greatest gifts?  I find that my happiest moments are the quiet ones sitting in the company of soulful canine and feline companions. 
I love the gentle energy that fills a room during these times. My soul feels still and quiet and my life has meaning and purpose.
What a gift, that for this moment, I get to do what I love for a living.  I enter the new year feeling blessed and grateful.
