About Me/ Company
My strong desire to work with animals, protecting and nurturing them has been with me since I was a young child. This sentiment has grown significantly through my involvement in projects working with sea turtles as well as volunteering for the Zoological Society of London, where I handled many farm animals, ferrets and grass snakes.
I recently completed a BSc in Biodiversity and Conservation at Birkbeck College and am passionately committed to a career in wildlife conservation. Dog walking work provides me with the opportunity to work with animals during my spare time, as well as the freedom to look for work in wildlife conservation.
As a previous dog owner, I can understand how daunting it is to leave your pet behind. It is very satisfying to be able to help those dog owners that need a 'little bit of help' for a few hours, a day or more!
Previous Experience
I had a dog for 16 years until he died of old age. The whole family was heartbroken and we miss him tremendously.
I am used to look after my friends pets, especially cats.
In general, I have plenty of experience of looking after animals, both domestic and wild.
Relevant Info
I am passionate about wildlife conservation and environmental awareness. I am an enthusiastic traveler and keen amateur photographer with experience of travelling and working in developing countries. I have a Business Management degree and recently completed a B.Sc. in Conservation Biology.
I am very proud of the extensive voluntary work I have been involved with in the past, especially working with sea turtles. Another great experience was being involved in the Greenpeace UK Fish Fight project in partnership with Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall on the state of fisheries, as well as campaigning for sustainable practices on tinned tuna by UK supermarkets.
I can provide references from my University lecturer or from my line manager at the London Zoo.
