Where can I apply for a full-time dog walking job?

Pet care experience

I (Santi) have been in contact with pets since I was born, not only dogs but all types of pets. When I was young I had a German shepherd who i loved more than anything! After he sadly left us we moved to the city and pets became smaller such as turtles, parrots & hamsters. Paloma has had a dog for over 16 years so she can be considered an expert! We have always loved walking and taking care of our friends' dogs which is where we started to grow a gigantic interest in doggos! Nowadays I am 100% sure being in contact with pets improves your mental health so I would recommend this to everybody!! I am a tall person so I can handle bigger dogs too and from my experience ive had the best times with the bigger buddies, but I would love to walk any :) Paloma has a tender care and is very sweet with all types of dogs, giving a very good combination to take care of the furry ones!! I have a car and would be happy to take the dogs for a walk in the forest, as long as their parents allow it. We are now living together and as i work remotely we can manage all types of different requests.

Santi was excellent, our 11 month old Lurcher really enjoyed staying and was fed and exercised as if he was Santi's own pet. Thank you so much. We will be back.

This is the second time we've used Santi to look after our dog Mabel. Santi is excellent with her and I have complete peace of mind knowing that she is safe and happy in his care. Thank you Santi
