Dog Walker Cockermouth

| I have around five years of experience as a dog walker and house sitter looking after cats and dogs of all shapes and sizes. I currently have a Labrador of my own and have had pets all my life. I also have experience looking after horses having spent a number of years working as a groom. I'm never happier than when I'm caring for animals and make sure I treat every one with the same level of care I would my own pets.

| I have always adored animals and grew up with them, my parents owned a German Shepard when I was a baby and the love rooted from there, I have also owned 3 springer spaniels in the past, all three being rescues, two retired police dogs and a retired gun dog, I’ve had rabbits and tortoises too! I now own a Black and Tan dachshund called Sasha, and a parrot named Mikey. I previously volunteered at a kennels and cattery for 1-2 years, which involved feeding, cleaning and dog walking. I have also volunteered at an animal park in the past for my work experience, looking after a range of animals. I am also hoping to complete a dog first aid training course in the future. Dogs particularly have played a massive role in my life and I would treat any pets as if they were my own. I can also drive which means I am able to get to and from locations, so if you are comfortable I can take dogs to areas where they are able to have a little bit more freedom, whether that be off the lead or just on an extending lead. I also work as a support worker at a school with children aged from 3-11, looking after them to ensure they are safe, so I am also DBS checked and completed safeguarding courses.
