Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog & Cat Behaviour & Welfare Lecturer Degree lvl
I have 2 years of experience as a degree level lecturer teaching canine and feline behaviour, welfare, husbandry and Training. In addition to this, I have a First class honours degree in Canine and Feline Behaviour and Welfare and have had pets since I was born, growing up with dogs, cats, hamsters and rabbits. I began working in the animal industry at 16 in aquariums and zoos and took my first step into caring for dogs professionally through helping my sister open a dog day care in the North East. Since then, I have gone to university, have achieved a 1st in my Bsc (hons) Degree in Canine and Feline behaviour and welfare, immediately progressed to teaching the very degree I just completed for the last 2 years and intend on spending my career helping dogs and owners to lead happy and fulfilling lives. I can train puppies and adult dogs using various techniques including: obedience, life skills, behavioural modification and scent training. Which means I can continue any ongoing training following your existing training plan. All training and husbandry is only done using positive based techniques (I do not use aversive based training).
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Good relationships with a dog and parents are based on high levels of kindness and understanding. Any pet in my care will always be treated like family, where there are no limits to what you would do to give them their best life. In addition, any "house rules" or requirements will be strictly followed including pet care/lifestyle and living arrangements.
Ratings and reviews
I cannot thank Tim enough for the fantastic effort put into dog sitting Blue and my house for 5 nights, Tim is thoughtful, polite and very approachable . Tim left my home cleaner that when I left for my holiday. 10 out of 10 and definitely recommend 👍
Tim was brilliant with Lily who can be difficult sometimes. She instantly took to him. His education and experience working with dogs is evident as he really knows his stuff. Tim came for a visit a few days before house sitting and instantly put me at ease and left me feeling confident that he was the right man to care for our dog and house. We came back to happy dog and a lovely clean house, even the bedding had been washed! I would highly recommend Tim to anybody looking for a dog sitter.
What a luxury it is to be able to leave your animals/ fur babies with someone so kind and able to care for there every need with such care and attention. We feel very lucky to have found Tim.
Great to have Tim stay and look after the boys - great communication, friendly and really knowledgable about dogs. Both my dogs took to him immediately and they were well looked after while I was away. Came back to two very happy pups and a clean and tidy house.
