I am in the pet caretaking business for almost 3 years. It all started when I adopted my first dog Ammu. She was rejected because of her gender. When we had to go out of station for a funeral we had dropped her at a boarding facility and she was beaten up there. That’s when I decided to start a home boarding facility for pets where they are given good care, food and love. I used the profit to help other street dogs like Ammu for their sterilisation and treatments. Soon I started making treats for dogs and that’s how I became a doggie treats & desserts chef at Doggie Chows. During the first lockdown due to covid few dogs came to our street in search of food and one of them settled in our street. He started protecting the street but people started abusing him because he was black in colour. They were ready to relocated him somewhere far away which is illegal and not right. My husband and I decided to adopt him and take care of him. We named him Mr.Karuvandu. He was already an adult dog so it took us six months to get him used to the home environment. He used to test my patience every second but we loved him unconditionally so we were ready to take any measures for him to be happy. All he wanted to do was run around and play like he used to. He was one of the reason I joined hands with a common friend and started a kennel based boarding service in Chennai - Bork N purr. With the profit we get from the business we use it to sterilise street dogs and help with their treatment.
