​I genuinely love all animals and have years of hands-on experience caring for them. ​I genuinely love all animals and have years of hands-on experience caring for them. ​I grew up caring for my parents' dog, whom I've looked after for many years. He has a complex character and is now a senior dog, which taught me to be extremely patient, read animal body language, and provide gentle, attentive care for elderly pets with tricky temperaments. ​Cats are also a huge part of my life: I lived with a cat for many years and spent a full year helping at a cat shelter. During my time there, I didn't just provide daily care, but also actively helped treat and nurse sick or recovering cats. ​Whether your pet has a unique personality, needs gentle care, or simply needs a loving and experienced dog walker and pet sitter, they will be in safe hands with me!
