Trustworthy, Experienced & Flexible
|
Since the early 90s, I have had various paid and voluntary roles involving animal welfare and pet care:
• an interviewer, animal placements support and fundraiser for national and independent animal charities and, currently, I offer advice and support for the first six months to people adopting or fostering a pet from a local shelter
• an unpaid foster carer, dog trainer, campaigner and committee member for an animal welfare society in Greece, where I lived for more than 10 years, also offering guided walks and tours to increase awareness of animal issues as well as raise funds
• pet boarding in my own home, caring for up to 8 pets at a time, referred by local vets & animal charities from a few days to several weeks, sometimes for six months or more. I also trained, socialised, sterilised and organised quarantine to comply with EU transportation regulations in cases where strays were adopted out of Greece
• pet/house sitting with responsibility for maintenance & security of the property, both in Greece & the UK – mainly in conjunction with sole charge of pets.
I have more than 25 years’ experience and am fully insured.
