About Asia

Hi,

My name is Asia and I`m a qualified animal carer with over 15 years of professional experience caring for domestic, farm and exotic animals.

During my professional career I have worked as a horse riding instructor, animal care assistant in animal shelters and pet shops, and I have managed three animal collections, including one animal shelter and two zoological parks.

I have my own dog walking and animal care business based in Armadale, West Lothian. I offer dog walking and pet sitting services (including overnight stay) for any animals from fish to horses, around West Lothian and the surrounding area. I am comfortable administering medicine, both oral and injections, so if your pet has special requirements I'm sure I can help.

I also offer a pet taxi service, when I pick up your pet, take them for a vet/ grooming appointment and drop them off home.

I am highly qualified with my qualifications including

BSc Animal Husbandry

PgD Animal Psychology

MSc Zoo Conservation Biology

I am a member of National Association of Pet Sitters and Dog Walkers. I'm currently working towards Pet First Aid certificate .

If there`s any service that`s not listed here and you think I could help you with please don`t hesitate to contact me :)

Unfortunately I am not able to provide boarding services at the moment.

Joanna was perfect. Chase was really happy staying with Joanna. He was really well looked after. Joanna took him on a long walk which he obviously loved. He was well fed and very relaxed. She also sent me lots of photos during the day so that I knew how he was getting on. Joanna was very approachable and friendly and we met up several times before Chase actually stayed with her. I would not hesitate to recommend Joanna. She was absolutely great and I will certainly use Joanna again.

After having sleepless nights about leaving my " fur baby" ragdoll cat Asia I think I've found a cat sitter "angel" in Joanna. What a star. Joanna came to meet Asia and myself before I went on holiday. I knew immediately she was a kind, gentle lovely lady who just loves animals. When on holiday Joanna sent me lots of photos of Asia settling in at Joanna's home. This was so reassuring. She encouraged me to take lots of asias toys,scratchpost,blanket and bed to make Asia feel at home which she definitely did. As Asia sleeps with me, Joanna allowed Asia to sleep with her too. So much so that Asia wouldn't come from under the bed when I went to pick her up.. Joanna is such as asset to your company. I hope to have Joanna look after Asia on my next holiday. A massive thank you to Joanna for looking after Asia with the best of love and care ever. X
