My Travel Story

Hi Everyone! My name is Chloe, I am 18 years old, and from England. 

I have always had a massive love and passion for dogs, I have always owned them and can't remember a time without a dog in my own home. On a recent trip to Antalya, Turkey I fell in love with the street dogs, I fed them and loved giving them the caring attention they deserved. I felt an overwhelming level of empathy for them. It was during that trip I decided that I wanted to work with dogs and help specifically street dogs in any way I can.  

When I got home, I left my job and was on a new venture to find a career within the doggy industry, however, I was not aware of the challenges I would have to face, after applying for over 20 dog-related jobs or apprenticeships and being unsuccessful... I decided to start my own dog walking/sitting business instead!

I have been absolutely loving my job as a dog walker but I still have a longing to help dogs in need, I try to help my local dog shelter as much as possible but this trip is the perfect opportunity for me to completely fulfill this dream.
