Animals have always loved me and I've always loved them. I've spent a lot of time reading about different types and breeds of pets and their body language as well as how to care for them properly.

I've had a cat from 14 years now and have helped friends with obedience training as well caring for and walking several of their dogs over the last couple of years, e.g. when they're on holiday or too busy; sending regular texts and photo updates throughout the day so they know their pets are being looked after.

I like to walk dogs for about an hour minimum if possible, so they have time to explore and get their energy out. I've worked with some dogs that are anxious or very eager, staying calm and gentle but firm with them works well to build trust and routine. I don't walk more than 2 dogs at a time unless I know they're all calm and will listen to commands.

I do great with clear, detailed instructions.
I work with vaccinated cats only.
I work with dogs that are vaccinated and, where possible, well-versed with basic obedience training for both our safety.

I'm typically available from 10:00-18:00 but have some flexibility around this.

If your pet needs medication administered, I'm happy to help with this, given you provide detailed instructions and know neither myself nor your pet are likely to come to harm from trying to administer the medication.
