I don't really know where to start, apart from to say that I love animals - they're my true passion. I only started pet sitting & dog walking officially back in March 2011. Although I have looked after and cared for animals for years, but just wasn't getting paid for it. Like I say, I love animals - and started off walking friends & family members dogs, then I started pet sitting (2 weeks at a time) it was then I realised that working with animals would be my ideal job. I've looked after very nervous cats & dogs (in fact 1 of my cats is a nervous cat) - so I understand that you have to take a certain approach towards them. I find moving slower (no sudden movements) use a calm soft voice when talking to them, and never force anything - always allow for them to do things when they feel ready. I've worked with small, medium & large dogs- Chihuahuas' Jack Russell's, Staffordshire Bull terrier' Golden Retriever, Dalmatians, Rottweiller, Grey Hound (which was a failed race dog) Bischon Frise etc etc.
