About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of breeds of dogs over the years; Dachshunds, Cockapoos, German Shepherds, Bichon Frise, Jack Russell, Shetlands, Labradors, Yorkshire Terriers… and numerous cats! I’m a responsible walker making sure the dogs are happy and in their routine at all times. Numerous experience over the years from just helping family friends walk their dogs or feed their cats all the way up to professional long term house sits all over the world. I work full time from home so walking dogs to their usual routine is easy for me. On the weekends we’ll probably go for significantly longer walks too. I have a garden and am also situated next to wide open spaces perfect for energetic zoomies, play and long walks. In the house they’ll be allowed on the sofas and virtually part of the house. For dogs with a real chew drive all objects at dog height will be put away. In the pet’s home, I have flexible working so is easy for me to fit to the dog’s normal routine. They’ll enjoy cuddles with me throughout the day.
