Summary

Friendly Dog Walker working in all weather conditions to meet daily animal exercise needs. Builds trusted relationships with pets to enhance activity enjoyment and comfort. Provides additional sitting services within the dogs own home to maintain highest levels of comfort and as minimal stress as possible. Updates the owners when need be and follows instructions given. Would like to carry on and expand business in the future however, at the present time there is difficulty building a client base. Also hoping to extend to include equine species such as horses and donkeys in the future when owners are away. Would also include other domestic animals (cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and other small rodents)

CURRENT


Would like to work in childcare as a baby sitter when needed. Not qualified, but very willing and of a friendly demeanour. Would thoroughly enjoy spending time with the children and would prefer children between the ages of 1 and 5. Would be happy to collect child/children from school when need be providing the school is in safe walking distance from the home due to not yet having a drivers license. Going back to experience although I have no qualifications I have been in charge of supervising large groups of various age children at one given time multiple times in the past. I have also babysat family members young children for them occasionally for a day.

FUTURE


I would also thoroughly enjoy working alongside horses, preferably a small privately owned yard or a riding school environment. In the past I used to volunteer at a riding school where I was situated for just over 8 years (8yrs3mnths). I am able to confidently walk, trot and canter. I have also galloped and have jumped up to 80cm. Have had experience leading ponies and horses between 10hh and 15.2hh in lessons and when turning out. Have also done a small amount of bareback riding as well as beginning the backing process of a young horse. Experience in riding a large range of pony + horse breeds, heights and temperaments. Ranging from Shetland pony to 17hh ex race horse.

FUTURE + PAST


Would be willing to work as an assistant within a shop, however may find this a bit more difficult as I struggle with confidence (always have done). Would be okay doing jobs such as stacking shelves and keeping stock up to date. However, may struggle working behind the counter to serve customers. May also struggle communicating with customers at the start but willing to work on this.
