Employer support
Battersea Dogs & Cats Home has been very supportive from the moment I joined the company. My return to work after mobilisation could not have been handled better and I felt supported throughout the whole process.
"Battersea Dogs & Cats Home has granted me unlimited unpaid leave so that I can attend my commissioning course and 10 extra days for annual camp."
