“After traveling in Brazil I wanted to bring the jungle back home so started keeping reptiles. I set up my business as I realised owners should only pay little prices for little pets being minded while they were on holiday. Since then I feel so fortunate that my business has expanded greatly into jungle reptile shows which i’ve been doing now for 12 years.”
