I have been a life long animal lover, with a particular soft spot for dogs! I have recently moved to Melbourne from Ireland, unfortunately having to leave my family's 4 beautiful German Shepherds (missing immensely). I had a major role in caring for these dogs, with 2/4 being born and raised in our home. They are 2 now, giving me lots of experience with pups and younger dogs. I also have lots of experience with older dogs as we have always kept animals at home. My oldest friend, an Irish Setter, lived until he was almost 17 - giving me great compassion for older dogs. In addition to my own animals, I have great experience walking dogs of family and friends. I have met and cared for a range of breeds and sizes, ranging from Bichon Frise to St. Bernard's. I am a highly active person, with a great interest in sport. I love to get out for walks or runs and will cater to the animal accompanying me!
