Annabelle

- Reliable Aussie doctor, moved to UK with partner for his work and currently not working myself

- I adore all animals, and am especially dog-obsessed. If you've ever walked past me in Cambridge with your dog, I've definitely smiled and pointed it out to my partner 😂

- Missing having a dog of our own while we're away from home and not in a position to adopt, and NEED a way to still get to pet dogs this year!! Would love to look after yours in any capacity - walk, home visit, dog sitting etc. Genuinely driven by my love of dogs!

- Also very happy to look after other animals! Grew up with guinea pigs, mice, a rat, a snake, cats, and bred birds as a child, so am very comfortable with any of the above! Love horses and farm animals too!

Past experience

- Have grown up with dogs my whole life, and adopted our own senior greyhound Noodle who was the love of our lives and has now passed away

- Always looking after our friends and families' pets at home which we love, in all shapes and sizes including Miniature Pinscher, Beagle, Kelpies, Rhodesian Ridgeback, Weimeraner, Australian Cobberdog/Labradoodle, Bull Arab cross etc

- Love to spoil dogs with lots of cuddles, attention, and games; but will reliably follow your instructions if in training or have rules around the house (eg not on the couch)

- As a doctor, I'm calm in medical crises if your pet were to become unwell. I'm also experienced in administering medicines and injections for animals, having done so for my dog Mimi's heart failure and seizures growing up, and for Noodle's osteosarcoma pain meds and arthritis injections.
