I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family had smaller pets such as cats, hamsters, and rabbits, which sparked my interest in animal care and rescue—especially with dogs. Over the past 8 years, I’ve gained valuable experience in dog behavior and care through attending training seminars, volunteering at local shelters, and providing dog walking and sitting for friends, family, and private clients. I am currently volunteering at the RSPCA in Stubbington. I've had to go through specific dog walking training on how to approach dogs who are struggling in the shelter. From being nervous and scared, to excitable and playful. I've cared for new born puppies, taken dogs to vet appointments and even cared for Tortoises. Through word of mouth, I’ve built a loyal private client base that I’m excited to continue growing. Caring for animals brings me immense joy, and I’m working toward a long-term career in animal care. I’ve recently begun a Veterinary Nursing course to further develop my knowledge and skills.
