About Catriona
I would say I'm a dog lover, others would say I'm dog obsessed! Either way, I love being in the company of dogs and find no greater form of exercise than taking my furry friends out for long walks.
Letting them exercise their sense of smell and curiosity for everything around them gives me such joy.
My family rescued the dog I grew up with and then I myself rescued my own dog when I lived alone. Both dogs had entirely different temperaments and separate difficult pasts but once a dog is shown love and loyalty they all give it back tenfold.
Whilst staying in America with my friends, I looked after their own dogs and the dogs they were house sitting for whilst they were out working. Walking them, playing with them and feeding them. I also spent time helping out at the doggy day care a friend works at whilst I was holidaying there.
A few years ago I ended up having to work different, longer hours to my usual shift and found myself worrying the whole day over my pup at home and feeling guilty he was by himself for longer than he usually was. Now, I only lived a 5 minute walk from work so I had the luxury of running home on my lunch break to let him out for a while before I had to go back again. I couldn't shake the thought that there must be loads of doggy lovers out there who don't have that luxury.
This experience is what gave me the motivation now that I am not working those long hours anymore to help out people in the same predicament. To give people the peace of mind that their best friend is being taken care of and getting the attention and exercise they deserve whilst you are away at work.
I'm reliable, kind hearted, honest and patient.
I can't wait to meet your furry best friends.
Thank you,
Catriona
