I have been dog obsessed since I was a young child. Having never been allowed a pet, I started walking my neighbours' 3 dogs every day for £1 when I was 7 years old. This quickly expanded to walking 10 dogs regularly in the street. I have always wanted to own a dog but it never quite happened and when my cat obsessed son was young, we had a cat for a number of years until she sadly passed away. In the past few years I have been dog sitting and dog walking for friends and family on a regular basis, and really enjoy the company of dogs while I'm working, with the freedom to travel without the ties of my own pet when I have free time. I live in the beautiful Vale of Belvoir countryside and vary my dog walks between the fields and meadows, the woods and the canal.
