Elliot

I am a 45-year-old financial journalist from England. I live in Hong Kong where I am global wealth management editor of a leading financial and banking magazine.

I have lived with dogs most of my life, starting with my parents' Welsh collie Harley and most recently with my Vizsla, Dudley, who you can see in my profile photos, and who lives in Switzerland with my ex-wife. We split last year but we carry on paying equal measures for his food, walking and upbringing. Amanda, who is with him in Switzerland, has since formed her own luxury dog clothing company. I work as the editor for the Website's magazine.

I have been a pet-sitter on and off down the years. For many years I looked after another Vizsla, Rizzo, for friends of mine in London, and when I lived in Hong Kong, I walked dogs for the Hong Kong SPCA. I have worked with volunteer organisations in India such as YODA, and with Flying Fur Animal Rescue in Philadelphia, a charity that saves dogs destined for euthanasia, and rehomes them with loving families in New York and New Jersey.

I am a very reliable person - if you would like me to provide you with personal references please ask.

I live in Mid-Levels. I would not be able to host your dog at my place during the day or overnight but I can help out with a walk, long or short, during the week or at the weekend.

Let me know if you need my dog walking services.

Yours sincerely,

Elliot
