Aoife Walsh

Hi! My name is Aoife (pronounced “eefa”) and I am an absolute dog lover with 2 dogs of my own - Sully (a collie/staffie mix) and Lucy (awaiting the DNA results!) If you are looking for me, you'll probably find me with my dogs at one of my two favourite locations: Lynn Headwaters or Spanish Banks Dog beach. That being said, I have experience handling multiple dogs at a time while ensuring each dog receives the exercise and attention they deserve.

I recognize that every breed is different and all dogs have their own little quirks and knowing how to handle them is a skill I am always looking to improve.

I believe a position as a Dog Walker or Sitter is an ideal opportunity for me to further pursue my passion for dogs and advance my knowledge and skills in dog handling and training.
