Someone with a good sense of humour.
Also I don’t like people rushing around due to balance and cognitive issues.
Some memory problems (not dementia).
I have a motability car so unless you live in the West Pelton area a car driver would be useful.
I have a great cleaner so no cleaning is required as such just a tidy up if needed.
Possibly popping to local shops with me as I can’t do my scooter.
Other help as required. Light duties
DBS check is required (cost will be covered by the employer).
*Very important*
I have 2 small dogs and a bird. So a dog friendly person is essential.
The bird only comes out in the evenings, so nothing to worry about.
I need someone who is not going to expect me to put the dogs in another room.
They get excited for a few minutes then settle.
I get extremely anxious when people are intolerant of my dogs.
