Hi, My name is Jess and I have been dog walking professionally for 3 years and before that doing it on a ad-hoc basis while I was studying. I've always had a passion for animals and have been the go-to person for family and friends whenever they needed assistance with their pets. I love taking dogs for walks and caring for cats whenever I can. When I meet a pet for the first time, I make it a priority to learn all about them—their routine, habits, and personality and any health issues. Understanding these aspects is essential for me and making sure that the pet feels comfortable with me. This allows me to provide the best care possible, tailored to their individual needs. When I take a dog for a walk, I make it a point to provide a well-rounded experience. I ensure they get plenty of exercise while also allowing them to sniff and explore their environment, as that’s just as crucial as letting them run freely. One of my favorite activities is playing the “find it” game with treats. It’s a fantastic way to help them settle down after all the excitement of running around! I have a certificate of attendance that I have completed a CPD accredited activity in dog first aid and emergency canine care. I also carry a first kit around with me. As I'm currently living in a flat sadly I don't have a dog of my own but do have 3 fishes all named Gus! Known as the Gus's my wonderful guppy fish. Along side my fish I also share custody of the family dog Pumba (mini Yorkie 11 years old!) who is a lovable dog but lacks a braincell expect when it comes to food! When I was younger we had many family pets including hampers, degus and a very grumpy rabbit. So I would be willing to pet sit for your small furry friends. Looking forward to hearing from you, Jess
