Her favourite part of the job is watching shy or anxious pups slowly come out of their shells and start to trust, play, and grow.

Liv has two working cocker spaniels of her own, Loki and Eddie. They’re far too hyper for day care life and much prefer sprinting down beaches or tearing through fields. Her dream dog is a Bernese Mountain Dog called Sansa, already named in anticipation. She has a real soft spot for spaniels, as well as the “crazy” golden retrievers who bounce into day care as if they own the place.

She’s also proudly Swedish, a keen traveller – including a trip to Australia where she held a red panda at Australia Zoo – and a bit of an aviation enthusiast, with a particular love for aircraft like the Airbus A380 and the Beluga.
