**I broke my ankle in November and I am slowly getting back to normal, but for the time being am not able to walk dogs**

I am 39 years old and have a FETAC Certificate in Animal Care. I have many years experience of animal handling from horses to dogs and cats, reptiles, birds, fish and everything in between. I have work experience in pet shops, doggy daycare and riding schools. I offer dog walking in Bray, Greystones and surrounding areas.

I have experience with large dogs and difficult dogs. I own a very rambunctious Newfoundland so am used to string dogs! I can take dogs in my car for off lead walks or walk them in around their locality depending on their own needs. I do not do group walks. I only take dogs together who I have introduced and am sure get along. I do one-to-one walks for dogs who need personal attention, or can take up to three dogs who are friends. I do not take more than three in one walk.

Cats are my favourite of all and I have a natural affinity with them. I can care for your cats in your own home while you are away.

I also do home visits and can care foe small mammals (rabbits, rats, gerbils etc) and exotics (reptiles, birds, fish) in your own home. I have experience feeding and taking care of small mammals. I owned budgies my entire life so can care for parrot and finch types easily.

I have trusted returning clients and available references.

Thanks for looking!
