I have always been passionate about animals from a very young age and have owned my own cats and dog for 7 years. However, since starting my uni degree at Queens University Belfast in 2019 I have been required to relocate to Belfast and unfortunately due to a shared living situation I felt it inappropriate to bring my pets into my shared house in the off chance my flat mates liked to play semi loud music which I decided may be too stressful for my pets (edit: it is noteworthy that from June- end of September I am the only person living in the house as my flat mates have all travelled home for the summer and won’t return until the beginning of term). Therefore although a hard decision to make I felt the most responsible one was for them to live with my parents in my hometown 30 miles away. However my passion for animals still remains and I would love to help out other animal lovers in the community with dog walking and pet sitting services. I strongly believe any opportunities granted to me would be a mutually beneficial situation as I will get such joy from looking after any pets and I believe both owner and pet will be highly satisfied by my treatment and love for their pet as my own. Many thanks, Rachel :).
