A Lifetime Dedicated to Animals
A little bit about me...
I am easygoing, but not at all a pushover. I like to think I have a firm but gentle touch, and a good degree of empathy. Having worked with animals - from horses to cats to dogs to chickens! - my experiences of their psychology have stood me in good stead when making new four- (and two!) legged acquaintances.
I've always thought dogs to be some of the best judges of character and human nature, and honestly, you just can't hide your own true self from their animal instincts. They see, they know and they will make up their own mind about you whether you like it or not! As for cats, well, they are an enigma wrapped in a mystery drowning in a tub of Dreamies. Would we change them? Never!
So all I can say is, if I meet your dog/cat/chicken and they give their paw of approval, what better endorsement is there?
My History With Animals
I am no Dr Dolittle but have strived to understand animals better since my childhood growing up on a farm in Ireland, surrounded by all manner of four-legged residents. My journey along with them has led to working at a local equestrian centre teaching children how to ride and from there to completing a degree in Equine Science in Wales. I have worked on a stud farm and on several racing yards in Berkshire, unforgettable experiences in a multitude of ways!
After completing a postgrad in animal genetics, I worked at the Royal Veterinary College for three years and from there, found myself volunteering for the Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation in Aylesbury where I became the Head of Operations of the charity for eight years.
Having done my time, I decided to set up my own animal care business and leave behind the London commute.
I love my job.
