ABOUT me
Hello! I’m Charlene, the proud owner of Paws in Motion, a dog walking and pet care company serving the wonderful community of East Dunbartonshire. I’ve had a lifelong passion for animals, and I’m excited to share a little about myself and my journey with you. I have had the joy of caring for a variety of pets throughout my life, including dogs, cats, birds, frogs, terrapins, rats, and hamsters. My current furry companion is Kaya, a beautiful Akita who brings so much joy to my life and the reason why I started Paws in Motion.
My love for animals doesn’t stop at pets. I’m also a wildlife enthusiast and have travelled the globe to witness incredible creatures in their natural habitats. From trekking through the jungles of Africa to see mountain gorillas to the Serengeti to witness the majestic big cats.
Closer to home, I've transformed my garden into a haven for local wildlife. I've created a hedgehog highway and love watching the different species thrive and raise their young. These experiences have deepened my understanding and appreciation of the natural world, which I bring to my pet care business.
My dedication to pet care has led me to pursue extensive education in the field. Here are some of the certifications and diplomas I’ve earned:
Pet First Aid Certificate, Pet Sitting and Dog Walking Diploma, Canine Communication Diploma, Introduction to Being a Dog Trainer Certificate, Introduction to Feline Care Certificate, Introduction to Cats, Behaviour Certificate, Stray and Feral Welfare Management Certificate, Rat/Mouse/Hamster Care Certificate, Rabbit Care Certificate, Introduction to Reptile Care Certificate, Introduction to Animal Care Certificate
I’m constantly learning and expanding my knowledge to provide the best care possible for your pets.
I understand that your pets are family, and I treat them as my own. With my extensive experience with my pets, passion for animal welfare, and dedication to continuous learning, you can trust that your pets are in loving and capable hands.
