About Lucy

I'm 32 yo self employed - work from home. I’ve spent lots of time around dogs growing up, my family had small & medium dogs that we would all take on walks frequently. This is a pasttime that I miss greatly living in a city, and not owning any pets myself. So no cute companion to go for walks & bonding. I’ve travelled around India, and lived in Bali for 2 years, and during this time connected with so many different types of street dogs. So I feel very well equipped to understand the nature & needs of both wild and domesticated dogs. I volunteered for a dog charity / shelter called BAWA for 3 months daily, I was responsible for around of around 15 dogs which had a full range of behaviours and needs. Some were quite vicious and others were disabled, it was challenging yet highly rewarding work. I have experience with rescue pets and pets with behaviour problems. I also adopted a stray dog called Braveheart and cat called Toto, which was a wonderful experience whilst I was living in Bali, therefore adapting to different animals needs was something that's greatly equipped me in handling western dogs no problem. Also, I've been told amongst friends that I'm the dog whisperer! I enjoy long walks to interesting parks, rivers; streams, lake, ponds... you name it. Currently I am working from home, so I have free time, therefore 100% reliable & flexible. I work from home so I can work as long as a stable WI-FI connection is at the property either during the day or overnight. One of my first jobs was pet sitting where for over a year I was during the stay staying in the pet owners house whilst they were at work so I could look after their dog Holly (since she was a pup), ensure she was fed and take her on walks nearby. Let me know if your dogs gets on with other dogs / cats, and special behaviour to be aware of, if they are good around children ( I don't have any children, however if on a walk they approach it would be good to know). I love to go for walks anyway, so taking your beloved pet for walks will really be an additional highlight to my day! I can always find a good route for your pet - In the Bristol area I'm really seasoned when it comes to routes and nature. So will find the best walking route for your pet so they can get the most out of the walk and as social or not with other dogs depending on your animals needs / behaviour etc.
