First and foremost I have loved and owned dogs for over 60 years. In that time I have gained a plethora of experience with a variety of dogs, having owned giant breeds weighing over 100kg as well as smaller breeds weighing little more than 3kg.I particularly enjoy working with giant breeds, but this doesn't preclude smaller breeds. I have previously had my own franchise working with dogs in a professional capacity with a long-established rivalUK-based, award-winning dog-sitting and home-boarding franchise, providinga "home-from-home" alternative to kennels, where franchisees arrange for vetted hosts to care for dogs in their own homes while owners are away. This service included personalised, one-to-one care. I presently own 2 dogs and a cat, I have 20 years of experience with cats as I was a latecomer to the world of cats.One of my favourite pastimes is hiking, so I recently decided to indulge myself by combining the two hobbies.I will love and care for your precious pets as if they own.
