Experience with animals and own pets
I have a great passion for horses and other animals. I have been blessed to have animals in my life for as long as I can remember, and have shared my home with small critters like hamsters and goldfish as well as dogs and cats. Milkshakes - my favourite kitty - was attacked by a dog when he was a young kitten and I rescued him and nurtured him to health. After that dramatic entrance into my life, he is still going strong! .
Klara dreams of working as a Physiotherapist to our national sports teams one day. To get to know her better, read her "Pet sitter of the week" interview here.

Sy het baie moeite gedoen om foto's en boodskappe te stuur om ons te verseker dat dit goed gaan met ons honde-kind! Dankie vir puik diens!!
