Relevant Info
When working full time I struggled to find anyone I was happy to hand my dog over to on a daily basis. Many walkers in the area, walk more than the council allows. Many walkers are not insured, or registered.....
I feel now is my opportunity to offer a service that pet owners can trust.
Owners need to feel happy about someone going into their house daily, and securing it back up again after the walk/visit.
Again, house sitting clients need to feel happy that they can trust the sitter.
Not only this, but all owners need to feel confident that their beloved pets are being cared for.
I am trustworthy, reliable, conscientious, caring, kind and an out going person.
I am fully insured and CRB checked.
