In October 2012 I decided to take a change of career. I set up my own Dog Walking / Pet Sitting business and it’s been going strong ever since. I pick up my furry friends each day and drive them out to a big open space for them to run and have fun, then back in the van to take them home, Their owners trust me not only with their beloved pet but their house keys too. I also do holiday boarding and cat feeding.
