ABOUT ME

Hi! My name is Finn.

I am currently taking time off work to work on my Tattoo Apprentice portfolio so have plenty of time to walk some dogs and look after your precious pets! I am going to be honest here, I am not so fussed about money but am mostly on here to meet cool dogs! Being in a flat makes it hard to own a dog and living so far from my two dogs at home has proved tricky. Just last year my lovely rescue pup Maz was forcibly put down after being attacked by a meter reader and I didn't get the chance to say goodbye, making hanging out with your dog all the more special for me.

I have experience owning and looking after 'problem' dogs who have been rescued from troubled pasts as well as more difficult/larger breeds such as Neopolitan Mastiffs and Bullmastiffs. My training through the SPCA also allows me to take care of dogs with special needs or requirements. I have two special needs SPCA cats currently.

I am more than happy to take care of other animals other than dogs such as cats, fish, birds, reptiles, small animals and my favourite- rabbits! I am also more than happy to discuss your specific needs. All pets are different and I want to make sure every single one is taken care of.
