I am an avid dog lover having had my own dogs for many years. Although I do not possess any formal experience in caring for other people's pets, I know that I have a great rapport with animals. I am now retired from a long nursing career so I have lots of spare time to pursue my interests. I can think of no better way and reward than to take care of animals and to hopefully give their owners peace of mind and know that their pet is being cared for and loved whilst they are away. I would surely want this for my own dog.
