Hi, My name is Claire, I'm 57, and live in Langham, Oakham. I have a gorgeous dog and cat at present. Chester my dog is 10, and Thomas my cat is 12. I have had dogs or cats since I was a child. I love both of them equally, and totally understand they're a precious family member. They need love and care as a child would. Plenty of interaction, playing, walking (dogs!), feeding and fresh water regularly. Pets can't tell you if they feel poorly, so you need to be alert to any change in their demeanour. I am very friendly, open, honest and caring. I will most certainly care for your beloved pet, as if it were my own. I'm punctual, and experienced with being outside in all weather! Cold and rain don't phase me, and I'm a proud owner of a great pair of wellies!
