Energetic, Loving Pet Walker/Sitter
|
My name is Emily, I'm originally from the US and am now based in Limerick. My undergraduate degree is in Biology, and I'm passionate about animals. I've had several experiences working with animals, including an internship at a chimpanzee sanctuary and my senior thesis researching birds in Northern California. I also volunteered at an animal shelter, walking dogs and playing with cats, all throughout university. As a kid, I grew up with pets (both dogs and cats) and couldn't imagine a childhood without them. My love for animals was obvious from a young age, as I always preferred stuffed animals over dolls.
My other passion in life is Irish dancing, which I've been doing for 18 years. I'm currently working towards my Masters degree in Irish Dance Performance at UL.
I absolutely love spending time with animals and I try to pet every dog and cat that comes into my vicinity (after asking the owner, of course). I enjoy being outside and being active, so dog walking is well suited for me. I also enjoy taking care of pets and keeping them company, so would be a great pet sitter. I'm reliable, responsible, and very comfortable with animals. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!
