Pet Express @ Leeds

Hi my name is Dominique and I am an international student from South Africa. Since I was a child I always had a special place in my heart for animals and especially dogs. My mother always called me a dog whisperer which made me feel like Dr Doolittle. I am so passionate and caring. I love spending time with animals because although we don’t speak the same language I have always felt that animals could understand how a people feel.
Back home I have 3 corgi’s called Chlöe, Spud and Oliver. My first dog was also a corgi named Zoë and unfortunately she passed in *** from cancer. Zoe lived for 9 years before she passed and Oliver is currently 3 years old while Chloe is 13 and Spud is 6. They are currently staying with my mother back home. I also had a fish for 2 years called Fin Diesel and some birds (Budgerigar). I also took Zoë and Oliver to K9 obedience training and completed the first 2 courses.
Together with having a lot of dogs and pets, I also had to take care of them when they were sick or when something happened and they had to take medication. Therefore if your pet has any special requirements or medication I could be able to provide that service. I had pets since I can remember and being so far away from them has been hard. I would look after your pet with all the love and care I can give.
I am a student at the university of Leeds, studying Art History. I am a very creative indivi2l who loves to travel and spend time with the things that make me happy. My hobbies include singing, dancing (ballet), playing ukelele, walking (with my dogs as well), photography, drawing and painting.
