Highlights
Pet care experience
I will treat any dog like my own
I have been a self employed dog walker for 5 years, prior to that I worked at a dog day care centre for 3 years and did 2 years volunteer work at a dog kennels. Whilst working at the day care centre, I have spent 2 years driving round picking up dogs from their homes, including using keys owners had given us. My mum and dad had a 15 year old lurcher, which i looked after regularly. I have a lot of experience with both dogs and people. I am doing this to help out people who may struggle looking after/walking their dog. I will enjoy this as i love walking dogs. I have a level 3 extended diploma in Animal Management which i got at Newton Rigg College, where I gained a lot of experience with dogs. I just love dogs so much and just want to spend as much time as possible with them. I will come and walk your dog, i offer a long walk or a short walk, it all depends on what you want. I am currently doing a canine communication diploma and have signed up for a behaviour and training course.

Schedule
I am a self employed dog walker, and do pet sitting aswell, so I can change my schedule quite easily to fit in all work.
- Cats0 to 7 kg7 to 18 kg18 to 45 kgover 45 kgRuth can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
- I would need to meet you and your pet/s before my first job with you, this is so I can see if I am suited to your pet and your pet suited to myself. I would like to know any medical issues with your pet beforehand and any requests you would need to me to do medical wise during my visits, so I can see whether I would be comfortable doing what you request. I have 2 rabbits of my own and I have needed to administrate medication to them regularly so I am quite comfortable with doing medication now.
