I am currently studying Dog Daycare Management and I have completed a short course in Behaviourism and The Science of Scent. Having grown up on a farm, my passion for animals is intrinsic and I have experience with a variety of species (cats, rabbits, horses, hamsters, goats, sheep and various others). Since I was old enough I have volunteered at Vets and Shelters to gain as much experience as possible. I have 2 dogs of my own and have been doing dog walking and boarding for the last 7 years. I believe in the “least intrusive, minimally aversive” training method and enjoy giving dogs the most fulfilling and stimulating walks possible. Past responsibilities included; - Walking and trail running with up to 5 dogs at a time - Basic grooming; bathing, brushing, teeth cleaning, nail cutting etc. - Entrusted to enter homes of dog owners to collect and drop off for daily walks - Overnight Home Boarding for dogs, both at my own home and at the clients home - Administering of topical and oral medication - Documenting all activities, feeding and medications administered - Assisting in rearing puppies (Great Danes, Italian Greyhounds and German Shepherds) Covid-19 precautions I vigilantly follow the latest guidelines set out by the government, and take the following measures when walking your dog; - Wash or sanitise hands between dog walks, and before and after entering your home - Disinfect my car between dogs - I use my own lead which is 100% washable and is disinfected between dog walks - Keep 2m away from people wherever possible - Minimise time spent in your home and keep social distance between any members of the family that may be home - I am happy to take any extra measures that may be required to keep everyone safe
