As a livestock watcher I am responsible for ensuring the health, safety, and security of animals grazing on people’s land. My role is to do regular patrols or if required camp out by the field (24hr care) to check on animals, monitor their environment and report any issues back to my clients. Also (if required) as a security dog handler team I can provide an immediate response, providing you with a high level of security that will be a deterrent against trespassers and theft.
