My name is Eleanor, and animals play a huge role in my life. I've been walking dogs for others since a very young age, and thanks to the trust and opportunities given to me by dog owners throughout my life, my levels of experience have risen to a passionate high.

​

   After attending Plumpton Agricultural College I enrolled at Brighton University to study Animal Science; a course that involves the biological, behavioural and ethical aspects of animals. Since graduating I also studied a further course in Ecology. Both degrees have taught me invaluable lessons to my fields of interest such as dogs and their behaviour.

​

    Alongside Bourne To Walk, I am also a voluntary dog walker for The Cinnamon Trust - a charity that helps the ill and elderly look after their pets when they find it hard. If you are looking for a dog walker due to long term ill health, The Cinnamon Trust may be able to help you and your pet, as you will be under their wing forever once registered. My own dog Jack and I are also volunteers for Canine Concern, offering therapy visits to places such as care homes, schools and hospitals. 

​

   Aside from animals and education, I have also been a dancer since 1998, and started my career working with animals at Blackberry Farm in Whitesmith from 2007.
