I’ve grown up surrounded by animals — living right next to the jungle definitely helped with that, with monkeys paying regular visits! Dogs have always been part of our home, with up to two at a time (five in total over the years), as well as a cat and hamsters. Growing up around animals from such a young age made me a natural animal lover, and I’m very comfortable caring for pets of different personalities and needs. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and well looked after while their owners are away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s playing with them, taking them on walks, giving them attention and affection, or simply keeping them company and making them feel calm and comfortable.
I also have additional experience dog walking and pet sitting through another pet care site, where I’ve looked after dogs with different temperaments, energy levels, and routines. I’m happy to adapt to each pet’s needs, whether that means long energetic walks, shorter slower walks for older dogs, or spending extra time helping nervous pets feel comfortable and settled. Walks are usually between 30 minutes to over an hour depending on the dog and owner preferences. I’m attentive, reliable, and respectful when caring for pets in their own home, making sure to keep their routines as normal as possible so they feel secure and relaxed.
