Caring dog walker.
| I am a very bubbly, energetic and dog-loving person. I'm a Psychology student at Edinburgh University, and I have a golden retriever back home whom I miss a lot. I am an early riser, and do miss my routine of waking up early to take my dog out for a walk at around 7 am. I have to be back home on Tuesdays and Thursdays for 8 am, I am very flexible any other morning. After my Dad, I'm my dog's favourite. When I'm home, I always take him out for walkies 3 times a day, two of the walks being an hour each. I also play fetch with my dog in the mornings during his walks. I have been doing this for 6 years. I also have experience taking care of golden retriever puppies: from when my own dog was a puppy, and from when my family and I took care of our neighbour's golden retriever puppy. I was mainly looking after the puppy and my dog. It was a hectic but lovely weekend. I also occasionally take my other neighbour's golden retriever out for walks when they are gone for a half-a-day trip. I love puppies and dogs and really like taking them out for walkies. I have also fed my dog, and both of my neighbour's dogs, and given them fresh clean water.

Looking for a dog friend to hang out with :)
| Hello Everyone! It's Isil. I am an international student at the University of Edinburgh. I also own a Terrier named Rico. I miss my best friend so much as I am studying abroad. So, the main reason why I genuinely want this job is to meet the longing I have for my dog. Also, since the country I come from is not in a good economic condition, I want to earn extra money for my life abroad without being a burden to my family. I get along very well with dogs of all breeds. I enjoy playing and having long walks with them. For this reason, I know this job is perfect for me. I'll be reliable, trustworthy, and responsible in my job. As a dog owner, I know you think ''My dog is my child'', and you are not alone! You can be sure that I will have the same mindset while hanging out with your dog. After all, I have a lot of love and care that I cannot show to my child right now! My schedule is not busy at all, and I don't have a heavy workload at the university. So, during the week, I'll have plenty of time to take care of your dog. Being an international student can feel lonely sometimes, therefore, I'll also need your dog's company a lot during the week :) PS: I live in the EH16 area. I am open to discussing the money I charge per walk.

Casual, individual worker + dog enthusiast!!
| Hi, I’m a student looking to earn a bit of extra cash over summer. It’s safe to say my family life has been centred around looking after dogs as my mum is a full time dog walker and sitter. This means that our house is never quiet and i’ve grown up looking after the variety of dogs that come to stay with us. I have also my own independent experience of overnight dog sitting. I would also love to spend time with dogs as I miss my own whilst i’m away from home! I’m only available short term for temporary work.
