About Me/ Company
Hi there!
My name is Ismena, and I'm a 20 year old music student from Poland. I don't have a full time job, so I thought "how to combine missing my dogs and earning some extra money?" and dog walking/sitting is a great idea! I love dogs, I'm a member of tons of groups on facebook about dogs, I go to parks just in hopes of being able to see dogs, and I can stop mid conversation if I see a dog. I'm 100% a dog person, but without having one by my side I feel like a part of me is missing.
Previous Experience
I've been around dogs since I was 4 years old. I remember the day when my parents finally agreed to get my brother and myself a dog. It was a caucasian shepherd taken from a shelter. We named her Selma. After I got older, my parents took another dog, a German shepherd called Huston (pronounced Houston). Sadly, Selma passed away just couple of years later and once we've processed her loss, we wanted to make it easier for Huston, as he was always with Selma, he was never alone. We adopted a lovely fur ball, a mix of caucasian shepherd and st Bernard. We named her Inari (however, once my sister was born, she renamed her "Dadu" - pronounced Dadoo) Surprisingly enough, she reacts to BOTH names. I miss them dearly, and I fly home as often as I can.
Of course I was always feeding them, playing with them, making sure their water is always fresh and their fur combed, taking them on long walks and cleaning after them.
As you can see, I've been around dogs almost my whole life, and now that I've moved to a different country I don't have a dog with me, I miss the long walks, cuddling and just being around a dog.
Qualifications & Training
My parents would be more than happy to write how I was taking care of the dogs :)
Relevant Info
I have a booked plane on 9th of December and I will be out of the country until 9th of January.
Other Services
I can be with a dog at the owner's place, I can walk the dog, stay overnight with a dog. Sadly, I cannot have a dog at my place, since my tenancy agreement forbids so.
