Experienced dogwalker from Stockholm :)
Pet care experience
My name is Maria, an experienced dogwalker who recently moved from Stockholm to Richmond. I am originally from Slovakia. Since I was a child, I have loved animals and nature, especially dogs and horses. For that reason I have chosen the Veterinary University to study cynology with specialization in canis- and hippotherapy. During my studies I voluntered in several organizations, including animal shelter, from where my family adopted a mix breed german shepherd dog, Mia. She had to stay with my family in Slovakia and I really miss her, but I'm grateful, that in Stockholm I had the opportunity to spend time among dogs. It would be great if I had the opportunity to also enjoy long walks with them here in Richmond. I worked as an official dogwalker for Tassevärld, where I walked every weekday a small group of dogs - a young standard poodel, king charles spaniel, a beagle puppy, an older springer spaniel, an australian cobberdog and a miniature schnauzer- so breeds of all sizes and temperaments :) Wandering through the forest is the way how I relax, and in my opinion,every living creature needs time spent far from the city rush. Therefore, whenever possible, I prefer go with "my" doggies to the nearest forests. Not only long walks but also visiting dog parks is a good opportunity for the guys to play and socialize with others. As to handling and training, I prefer positive reinforcement :)
Reviews
Maria has worked for our dogwalking company (Tassevärld) in Sweden for almost a year and she has been one of the best employees I could wish for; could have not been happier with her work. She is very punctual, always on time. She is highly reliable and trustworthy; she managed her whole group independently and everything went smoothly at all times. She simply adores animals and also has a natural talent handling them, training them with positive reinforcement. All of our clients were extremely happy with her and were very sad to hear when she left us. She could have a job with us again at any time, if she would decide to come back to Sweden. I can give my highest recommendation to her.
