About the Employer

I am a gentleman that lives in Kenilworth with his wife and German Shepherd dog. I am looking for a PA to assist me with my basic personal care and socialising outside of the house to enable me to be more independent, especially when my wife has to travel to see elderly relatives. Sometimes I may need with food preparation I have a beautiful German Shepherd dog that is very protective. It is essential that my PA is comfortable with large dogs and will take instruction from us in how to behave around her. Occasionally Dog walking will be required I enjoy watching sports. I like to keep up to date with current events
