Highlights
Pet care experience
Farm-grown, raised around all size dogs and cats
Have been around animals since I was born, raised dogs and cats of my own and have experience working at a vets during my teens so very comfortable delivering pills to animals too. Before I was 10 we had an alsatian and a rottweiler. I also raised two smaller dogs on my own who both lived till past 15. I've sat for my friends' dogs from when they were puppies well into adulthood. So I know how much enrichment border collies need, how loving American Staffordshire terries are and how they'll play with you till they snort. I also had a two cats called Christie and Tiger growing up who lived till old age. I'm aware how complex dynamics between pets can be and how important it is to know a pets' cues, make them feel comfortable and safe. I adore animals and take great comfort in giving them comfort and so much love.

Schedule
I work remotely mostly and have a flexible workday with regards to meetings so I can take pets out for walks during the day. On the weekends I can make myself available and take pets fo walks whenever they need as I live right next to brockwell park.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a walled courtyard that pets can go to whenever they like. I walk pets twice a day or more if needed as brockwell park is round the corner. The flat is spacious so it's more just about listening to what the pet needs and the owners instructions as they know their pet best.
A typical day
Long walks and plenty of stops to sniff everything (while making sure nothing suspicious goes in their mouths!). If ok with owners, I've been wanting to make frozen dog treats I've seen on tick tok (such fruit or peanut butter frozen snacks on enrichment plates). For cats I'm quite good and using toys to simulate little animals they can chase for fun.
