I'm a dog loving girl who thinks dogs deserve the same amount of love and affection that their owners give them, even when their owners are away! Petsitting is something I really find enjoyable. Looking after the animal is only partly what's great; it's the friendship, the companionship and the sense that I'm not actually completely alone in my house! I own my own home, so am always happy to accomodate a dog in my own house if you'd prefer. With my own house, comes my own family dog petsitting! Not only do I get trusted with Max, I'm the go to dog sitter for our family friends, my own friends and my work colleagues. This is something I truly value because to be trusted with looking after your family dog is something, but to be trusted with dogs you don't already have a relationship with is really a feeling I can't quite put into words but is something I'm incredibly grateful for. I can't wait to own my own dog one day, but I'm not set on getting a puppy. I'd like to get a dog from a shelter and because of this, I'd like to gain lots of experience with all kinds of breeds of dogs - I'm not prejudice, I love them all! This way when the dog chooses me (because lets be honest, the dog ALWAYS chooses the owner), I'll be able to say I've had lots of experience with it's breed! I work as an 9-5 accountant during the day, which comes with it's pros and cons. The main con is that I'm often sat at my desk for hours on end so all I want is to get out and have a big long walk... Now what dog do you know that doesn't want to do that? The main pro of my job, is I'm very disciplined, organised and have a very level head when the situation requires it. I also live close by to the office, so am able to go home to make sure dog is not alone for too long and that they're able to go out for a walk at lunch too. The last thing I would like to mention is that I will only take vaccinated pets unfortunately, as I'm obviously around a few dogs a lot of the time but the main one being my family dog Max who is 15 years young, but I obviously don't want to pass anything onto him, so your co-operation with that would be extremely appreciated.
