I have always wanted a dog but due to being at university until this year it hasn't been possible. Instead, I began offering my services as a local dog walker and sitter a few summers ago as a way of gaining experience with dogs and just to have company to get out and about!. Since then I have looked after a number of pets, from a 17 week old Labradoodle to an elderly Jack Russell cross with arthritis. I have gained essential experience in how to understand a dog's behaviour and how enjoyable it can be to connect with their unique personalities. I have recently finished university and now would like to begin to build my own dog walking, boarding and sitting service based on my belief that each dog deserves a personalised experience.
