I've always been an animal lover, having 2 cats and a dog in my country, Spain. As I child I used to spend the summers in my grandma's farm in Galicia and I created an understanding relationship with animals. At the moment I take care of my friend's dog Naila (you can see her lovely face in one of my pics), I take her for long walks and runs in the park and I make her stay enjoyable and fun. Every time she comes home I have got little treats for her and that makes her happy when her owners are away. Most of the time I understand the needs of those animals that surround me, perhaps because of my upbringing in a small town in Galicia, where animals are considered equals and showing them respect and care is one of my people's values. I grew up with two dogs: Sol and Lua and after Sol passed away, being one of the saddest moments in my life, my family adopted two female cats, Ana and Margarita. I will make sure every dog I take care of is treated with love and respect and that his/her stay in Elephant and Castle is that of a king/queen, as having their owners away can be sad at times. For that reason, I can assure they stay will be exquisite. Regards, Paula
