GO WILD JOURNEY

My Journey and Experience in Pet Care

Studied at Capel Manor College

Enrolling at Capel Manor College was the start of my venture into the field of working with animals. I gained a wealth of valuable hands-on experience and knowledge. Over the course of the two years, our curriculum encompassed the study of Animal Behaviour, Welfare, Health, Nutrition, Training, Genetics, Breeding, Biology, and Nursing.

Volunteer for Cats Protection Agency

I spent a year volunteering as a 'Cat Carer' for Cats Protection Agency. This experience provided me with valuable insights into the operational and managerial aspects of a Rescue Centre. It also deepened my understanding of cat behaviour, particularly in establishing bonds with nervous or shy cats.

Studied Animal Management at Writtle University College

Attending university was a highly valuable experience. While it may not have been my preferred method of learning as a hands-on individual, it held equal importance in my educational journey. I gained extensive knowledge and practical experience, particularly in working with new breeds of animals.

Over 8 Years Experience Dog Walking Professionally

After leaving education I jumped straight into Dog Walking. Having previously done it part-time during my studies, I found the transition smooth and enjoyable. I joined an excellent company, where I spent several years continuing to enhance my valuable expertise and practical knowledge. I then decided to begin my own journey and go solo, which is when Go Wild began in 2021!

‘Jackson is a Romanian rescue and can be a bit nervous of strangers but he absolutely loves Rachel and always comes back happy and tired after his walks.  She's extremely reliable and conscientious and has recently stayed in my house to look after Jackson and my cat whilst I was away for the weekend.  I can't recommend Rachel more highly ... she will really take good care of your pets and she takes amazing photos!’

‘I first met Rachel 6 years ago when I had 1 dog, now I have 3 and they are a handful. Juggling 3 dogs and work 5 days a week is a challenge, but Rachel is a life saver. She walks the dogs, 3 x weekly and I feel so confident that they are really well looked after and cared for by her.
Can not recommend Rachel enough’

Rachel has been a great help over the past years, the nature of my work requires me to leave my home on short notice at random times and Rachel has been amazing at being able to help me care for my cat even when I am not home, giving me great peace of mind.
