About Me/ Company
I’m a public sector employee and work a 6 days on/ 4 days off shift pattern. I work alongside dogs at work (employee dogs and public dogs) I have a dog of my own at my parents and I actually prefer dogs to humans... not allowed one where we live as it’s rented accommodation so figured to get my daily fix of dogs I’d try and become a dog walker/Sitter!
My shift pattern is awkward but because it’s 24/7 I’m available pretty much every day and at different times!
Absolutely adore dogs and wish I’d thought of this sooner!
Previous Experience
I don’t have any official experience, other than having a family dog for 11 years who still thinks he’s a puppy (cocker spaniel so very energetic!)
I could probably ask my mum for a reference but she’d definitely be biased (and I hope that is read as a joke as I definitely wouldn’t ask my mum for a reference!)
Due to my job I’m often faced with aggressive/badly owned dogs and I consider myself a dog whisperer. No dog should be aggressive unless the owner is doing something wrong! They’re all cute and cuddly really even if they don’t know it yet.
Relevant Info
I’m 26, recently married, live and work in London, own a 4x4 Volvo with a dog gate in the back so can transport if necessary to walking locations! Although my dog still used to manage to squeeze through... 🙄 happy to answer any questions and meet owners and dogs before being successful for any walking/sitting jobs!
Other Services
Happily do some dog sitting but I’d prefer to do it in my own home as I’m not a fan of sitting in other peoples houses - happy for owners to come and check my flat first if they’re happy to do so!
