About Me

I am a 32-year-old married individual living with agoraphobia and separation anxiety. I enjoy sports—especially golf and football—and love spending time outdoors, particularly walking my 10-month-old Labrador, who is currently being trained to assist with managing my panic attacks. I also have a calm and friendly 12-year-old cat at home.Due to my condition, I am unable to travel far from home and can experience heightened anxiety when alone, particularly when my wife is out. I am now looking to hire a compassionate and reliable carer/companion to provide support during these times and help reduce reliance on family members.

• Support with managing anxiety and panic episodes in a calm, reassuring manner
• Accompany me on short walks locally (including with my dog)
• Assist in maintaining a relaxed, structured environment

Desirable

• Experience with anxiety disorders or mental health support (preferred but not essential)

Hours & Pay

• Competitive hourly rate, depending on experience

Additional Information
