Pet care experience
My 5 year old boisterous Boxer is my world. He is the ultimate adventure companion and has taught me the ins and out of dog care - discipline, continuity, unconditional love and structure. I have been solely responsible for his exercise regime, all raw diet, physio / rehab and parlor care. I am fit, healthy and love the outdoors - coming from South Africa and always ensure my Boxer is right by my side for all activities; be it hiking, stand up paddling, camping and weekends up the coast. I have regularly walked dogs in my neighborhood and I’m particularly skilled in handling strong, boisterous pets. I am incredibly patient and gentle and will plan plenty of fun excursions for your furry companion! I am currently working part-time so I will have more than enough time to tend to your pets needs and make sure they are getting enough daily movement. I have attended 3 levels of dog training with my Boxer and have years of experience when it comes to handling the most boisterous of pets on long walks / hikes. I am therefore actutely aware of all warming signs when a dog is stressed, anxious, uncomfortable or aggressive - understanding these signals are so important to establishing a relationship with any animal.

Safety, trust & environment
My 12 year toy Pom has had a heart condition for the last 4 years. She requires the administration of oral medication at specific times throughout the day. Her schedule has been interwoven with mine to ensure that she is never left unattended for periods longer than 4 hours.
Information Bella A. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs, injuries or triggers. Having trained an incredibly sensitive dog I am overly cautious of environments, noises or other dogs which may set off specific behaviors. It would also be helpful to know any health issues, specifically related to their heart, bowl movements and house rules regarding furniture.
A typical day
Having recently moved from South Africa where the mountain was my backyard, my dogs enjoyed regular strenuous hikes, beach walks, paddles up the river as well as always ensuring that mental stimulation wasn’t being neglected. Games around meal time and snacks to work their brain and slow down their chewing has become an integral part of my dogs routine.

Pet care was a huge part of my daily routine. Each morning started with a hike up the morning with my Boxer. Food preparation, grooming, mental stimulation and cuddles at bed time. He was factored into all decisions around weekend aways and trips up the coast. Having recently moved to the UK for work my boxer is currently being cared for by my partner until they join me.
