Growing up, I was always around pets, and over the years, I developed a love of being around animals and helping/interacting with them. Due to this love of animals, I have always jumped at the opportunity to do work with animals, and have lots of experience in caring for and looking after animals, such as various jobs pet sitting for friends and family, looking after pets such as dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish, tortoises etc. I have also done work experience at Wild Zoological Park where I had experience in cleaning enclosures and giving basic medical care to a variety of animals. My love for animals also encouraged me to pursue a course studying them. I studied Marine Biology and Zoology at Bangor University, where I achieved First Class Honours. To get a more detailed understanding of looking after pets I took a course in Dog Walking and Pet Sitting which I passed and now have a diploma for. I am extremely enthusiastic about working with any type of pet and would provide nothing but the best possible care for any animal I am responsible for. I don't offer dog boarding or taking pets into my home, due to a family member's allergies but I am absolutely more than happy to provide dog walking, house visits and house-sitting services. While with the pets I can administer oral medication but more serious medicines such as injections are better left for vet visits. I can groom pets if requested. The dog walks I can offer can vary in time, I mainly offer hour-long walks, but shorter 30-min walks are also available. By law, I can only walk 4 dogs at one time, but I can do this multiple times a day, so I could walk anywhere from 1 to 32 dogs a day if I was completely fully booked working 8 hours a day. Currently, I can spend any amount of time with the pets I am left in charge of, and my current availability is 24/7.
