I am 29yrs old, an architect from India and recently finished my Masters here. I have been petsitting for the last two years (while I was studying my masters).
I have a 6 year old black labrador back home in India, his name is Mojo. He's an army dog and is trained so well that he can salute (dog version) on command, hehe. He loves to play ball and the water of course and I would always love taking him out to play. I miss my dog just too much and that's probably my main motivation! I love to be a dog sitter because they're just the best creatures on earth! They're full of love. I would always find myself feeding street dogs and caring for small stray puppies (as there are many stray dogs in India not being looked after) I know dogs require a lot of attention and I would love to help out.
Understanding how dogs and cats are different, I also offer to be a pet sitter for cats or in fact any animals. For me, it brings a sense of achievement to be able to take care of animals. (By achievement, I mean to say achieving companionship, love, care, social-emotional empowerment for self.)
I can currently only offer to come to the pet's original residence because my flatmates now have a dog (who's not coping so well with other pets).
