I have always had dogs, cats and other animals, however I do not currently have my own pets and really miss the company of animals especially dogs.. I have two grown daughters who are occasionally around. I have lived in a rural area on a farm for most of my adult life. We have always had dogs, labradors, cocker spaniels, working collies and sight hounds. I have experience of puppies from birth. I have cared for relatives and friends dogs on multiple occasions and have experience of house sitting caring for dogs and cats. I am confident walking dogs, experience of up to 5 at a time, as well as providing positive reinforcement and plenty of affection. I will care for your pets and animals as I would my own, with calm and affection.
