I've had a special connection with dogs since I was a little girl. I grew up with a Russian Spaniel who was my best friend and companion throughout my childhood. After him we adopted a labrador retriever with whom I connected deeply as well. I loved taking long hikes in the forest with him and playing in the backyard. Besides that I have very good relationships with dogs of my friends and family members. People have often wondered how I am able to find a connection even with strange dogs whom I have never met before. I've had dogs around most of my life and I would love to keep it like that. I don’t own a dog right now, because I've been traveling a lot. However, I’m very passionate about dogs and would love to work with them every day. That’s why I decided to join Rover. I have a lot of experience with all kind of dogs: small, medium and big size dogs; puppies, adults and seniors; energetic, shy and anxious dogs with different needs and behaviour problems. I’ve pet sat my friends and relatives dogs and also strangers dogs. I love dedicating my time to dogs. I’ve read a lot of books about dogs covering subjects like different dog breeds, dogs health, behaviour problems and dog training. I have earned a Complete Canine Care diploma in British College of Canine Studies. This course included all aspects of dog care, raising a puppy, socialisation, health, nutrition, discipline, dealing with behaviour problems and training a dog. I’m very passionate about dogs and take every dog as an individual with its personality, behaviour and needs. I would love to work with your dog and offer him/her a fun and joyful companion! If you have any more questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
