Dog Walker Trimdon Station

| Hello, I’m Libby and I am 21. I have 2 miniature dachshunds at home who are 2 and 1 and have had previous experience with German shepherds and golden retrievers in my family home so I am comfortable with larger dogs as well. I am offering my services to walk your furry friend, do check in visits and overnight care in mine or your home if you’d prefer them in a home setting rather than kennels. My services are available to all dogs for walking and check in visits. However, overnight care in my property requires crate trained and neutered.

| I am a professional dog walker and sitter, and I cover the Wynyard, Sedgefield, Trimdon, and Fishburn areas in Co. Durham. Being a dog owner myself, I am more than aware of how precious your dog is to you. There are many reasons why you may not be able to take your dog out as much as you would like. I'm here to help you with that. I offer a free "Meet and Greet" at your home so we can all get to know each other. I also offer a free first walk on which you are welcome to come so you can see how your dog and I get along. Rest assured that I will treat your pet with the same love, care, and attention as I would my own.

| I am a 30 year old experienced dog and cat owner. I live in the county Durham area, Bishop Middleham. I am a part time library assistant, and in my spare time I have dedicated experience volunteering for local cat and dog charities in the Durham area, and have 5 years experience as a dog walker, walking breeds such as whippets, grey hounds, staffies and huskies. I have four rescue cats in my care of differing ages and a rescue husky cross that is 3 years old. I am a dedicated animal lover with excellent experience in animal care which I am happy to elaborate on and discuss further!

| I'm Paula (Polly) answer to either, I live in a small village in east Durham called Thornley with my husband Geoff and 3 fury babies. I have 3 Chihuahuas, 2 girls and a boy... Lexi, Daisy and Gerry. After working with humans for most of my life I've learned I like dogs more. Being a dog owner I know how precious they are and love nothing more than spending time with them. My husband and I ran a kennel club assured dog breeding business for 7 years however work commitments in our day job forced us to go fulltime and rehome all the dogs. We still have the kennel facilities which l am keen to convert into a part time business of some sort, I miss working with animals so much and the long term plan is to hopefully do that fulltime in the not to distant future. After researching and alot of thought I have decided to offer dog walking in my spare time and plan to do a grooming course. I know how important it is to trust anyone looking after your pooch and would be more than happy to plan a visit to introduce myself as and if you require my services.

| My name is Holly, I'm 27 and I am pet mad! I am currently looking to start my own business and looking to build up my client base. I currently have no experience in dog walking/sitting professionally, however I have owned my own dogs, cats and reptiles. I studied animal management in college for 3 years. After this I used to run a pet shop for 7 years so know a lot about all types of animals. I am so passionate about pets and love nothing more than to help you look after yours. I know how important our fur/scaly babies are and would treat your animal as my own. I have experience in looking after: Large dogs Small dogs Medium dogs Indoor cats Hamsters Mice Guinea pigs Rabbits Leopard Geckos Crested Gecko Tortoises Corn snakes Pythons

| I've had dogs most my life so av got experience of dogs and would be looking to start my own dog walking business

| I am writing to apply for your Dog Walker position today. I know I have the experience and way with animals that you require. Though many people believe that it does not take a lot of experience to be good at walking dogs, it actually requires a number of skills. Consider first, how much you love your pets, and how you would feel if they were lost, taken for granted, and/or mistreated by an individual you are paying. This is why you must have a candidate who knows about different breeds of dogs, is on time, and know how to care for dogs in feeding, playing, and walking dogs. Moreover, they must love dogs-otherwise all will be amiss. I have been walking dogs as a profession for the past three years, and five years before that for my own dogs. I love animals, and have all the skills and experience you might need in a candidate. For these reasons, please reach me on my contact details phone to discuss the times you need dog care. Thanks so much for considering me. Sincerely, Rachael
