A different kind of love

Pet care experience

My name is Karin and since little I have had a special love for pets. In secondary school I did my work experience in a pet shop and after that I started college where I got a diploma with the highest grade in Animal Management with Applied Animal Behaviour where I had experience in caring for pets - exotic pets such as snakes, chincillas, cameleons, fish, degus, bearded dragons, parrots and domestic pets such as hamsters, rabbits, guinea pigs, etc. Learned to do health checks. I also have an unfinished university degree in Veterinary Nursing with Applied Animal Behaviour with experience in working in vets during placement where I have learned so much, and developed the skills from college even further. Unfortunately I had kids which did not allow me to finish it. I do hope to one day do more courses in the area to learn more and be able to help more and more people. I work full time at home and the only pet I have at the moment is a Syrian hamster which we have had for around 3 months. I have a fully fenced backyard, two kids under 5 Benjamin is 4 and Charlotte is 2 I have a nice big garden at the back which provides sun and shade

Benji has been well looked after by Karin. We would certainly be happy to leave Benji with her again.

Information Karin D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviours that I can account for. If they get on with kids we would love to have them. My preference is for breeds that get along with kids as I have my two under 5’s and they sure love to play with them

A typical day

I am really into learning more and more about dog behaviours and I put what I learn into practice. None of the things I learn involves punishment so your dog will not be harmed. We would go on a nice walk at a park that is near by with the kids where we can play fetch and socialise with other people and dogs too
