Dog lover, cat owner (4) studying to be trainer

Pet care experience

Local to Heathfield Park but willing to travel around NW Birmingham (Handsworth Wood, Handsworth, Aston, Lozells, Newtown, Jewellery Quarter and town). Cat owner (4 currently) and Dog owner (just the 1 for now). I’m studying animal behaviour and writing a book on communication, language and socialisation in animals so love spending time with, exercising and training dogs and cats. Qualified first aider (humans). As someone who volunteers as a teaching assistant in a primary school, I’m very adept at dealing with difficult situations. Avid cyclist and will shortly have full time use of a car (my school is only 5 minutes walk from home so haven’t really needed one) Very flexible - with notice, responsible and considerate to customers. I run my own web development and hosting company, so this is mainly for pleasure and a bit of extra spending money

About Ben S.

Skills

34 years of experience
Oral medication administration
Senior dog experience
Special needs dog experience
Can provide daily exercise

Information Ben S. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences, I love all dogs and cats (including mongrels). What commands does your dog know/obey? How are they around people/other dogs? What is their favourite treat? How much do you feed them? Are they leash trained? Can they go off the leash, if so under what circumstances? How much exercise do you want me to give them? The rest we can cover in person or through messages.

A typical day

I love taking dogs on walks through parks and into the countryside where they can meet other dogs. Giving them new and varied experiences rather than the same old walk around the block is what I live for. I love playing fetch (and don’t bore too easily) so a football, tennis ball, stick etc.
