My name is Richard. I am married with two older daughters. Our family loves animals. We currently have two dogs, Rosie and Jessie. Two cats, Smokey and Patch. One rabbit, Buttons. We have had chickens, lizards and rats before.Whenever we went away as a family, it was so important to us to find someone we could trust to look after our pets who are a part of our family.Whilst I do not have experience looking after other people's animals, I have direct experience looking after my own animals for close to 40 years and I know that every animal is different and have their own quirks. We currently have a rescue dog (Jessie) and she is extremely anxious and nervous around people she does not know, so I have to support her differently.&nbsp;I am available to visit your house and can be flexible to work with you around keeping feeding and walking routines consistent. I will work with you to plan this out during the initial free intro meeting and if for any reason I can't support work your requirements, I will let you know up front.&nbsp; I realise it is very important that your furry friends feel like their lives and habits are the same.If you need an in-house sitter, I can definitely work with you to look at what your requirements are and put a plan in place, so you feel comfortable.Unfortunately, I do not offer the ability to house your furry family at my place, as Jessie finds it difficult with other animals.&nbsp;I now have more time on my hands and want to give that trust back, so you can go away and feel relaxed that your family of pets are being looked after and you are not stressed about their welfare or whether they are anxious.I will look after your furry friends, like I look after my own. You can relax knowing they are being loved and care for. And importantly you can enjoy that holiday or other important event.

Hi! I’m Mel. I’m a long time cat lover as I grew up with them and cannot imagine my life without my cat Milla. I enjoy their company and love love love their little personalities and I understand that every cat is different, with different needs.&nbsp;
I’ve also had a bunny and I’m comfortable caring for them. Growing up, I’ve helped friends and relatives care for their cats when they’re away.&nbsp;
I’ll firstly understand your cat’s personality and routine and I’ll make sure your cat receives the attention and affection (with their permission of course!). I’ll keep to your feeding schedule and make sure that their litter boxes are cleaned. I’d love to play with them and keep them company or keep my distance if they’re wary of strangers, and let them come around in their own time. I’m also happy to water your plants, bring in the bins etc.&nbsp;
I'm a stay at home mum and freelancing at the moment so my hours are flexible. I’ve used pet sitting services whenever I travelled in the past, and having been a client who looks for the perfect sitter, I understand fully what a pet parent looks for! I provide daily updates with photos and videos and I’m always a text or a call away.&nbsp;


I am a dedicated and reliable pet lover with extensive experience, specializing in providing top-notch care as a dog walker. Currently, I share my home with a 12-year-old cat and three dogs. Working from home allows me the flexibility to arrange visits to your home, ensuring that your dog receives proper feeding and walks. Notably, I can efficiently walk three large dogs simultaneously. Your furry friends are indeed in safe hands! My commitment to pets, combined with my reliability and flexible schedule, makes me the ideal choice for your beloved companions' well-being. You can trust that I will go above and beyond to ensure the happiness and health of your pets, providing them with the care and attention they deserve. With a genuine passion for animals, I strive to create a nurturing and joyful environment for every pet I care for.
Look forward to the chance to meet your lovely fur family!

Hi There!
I have a few cats of my own including an ex-regional pound inmate that I've had to rehabilitate from a broken state back in to a fun loving cat. As a result, I get nervous when I go away, hoping that the sitter will do things as I would, ask questions, send photos and ensure my cats eat and are well cared for. That's what I would like, so that's what I do for other people's cats.
I'm happy to send far too many photos, sit there like a statue whilst the cat sniffs the bowel in the presence of a stranger and maintain consistency for your cat(s). I've not had veternary training but I'm happy to administer oral medicines and skin cremes and possibly eye drops (depending one the cat's reactions). Bitey, belly scratches and multi-cat homes are all good in my book - ranging from total food monsters to timid cats that hiss at strangers, only showing their freindly selves to their owners.
Let's face it, there's always a bit of worry when you go away. My aim is to reduce that as much as possible, the difference between knowing and KNOWING and then actually being able to relax on holiday.
I work throughout the day, generally i'll declare myself unavailable through busy deadline periods
**Sorry folks, I don't sit for dogs, or other non-cats. I just wouldn't know what I was doing**


&nbsp;Hi everyone! I'd love for you to call me Sam! (female)&nbsp;
A little about me!&nbsp;
I grew up in New Zealand with an array of furry friends, from dogs, cats, mice, rats, chooks, fish, birds and horses.
I am the one that attends to the ‘broken’ ones that nobody else wanted. I loved them all.
From a very early age, I always had a way with animals, like a deep understanding of whatthey felt, what they wanted. They were my go to when I needed someone to talkto. This has led me later in life, to Reiki and Intuitive Healing, and Inter-species communication.
I have worked with many rescues, including Greyhounds, as well as rescued wild animals, and those still living free. This now includes approximately 20 species of animals, from around the globe.
The information received has been confirmed by pet owners, and via X-Rays in wild animals, as being accurate.
&nbsp;I lived on a farm for 9 years, having further experience with both cows and sheep.&nbsp;
My life wouldn’t be what it is today without furry companions by my side. Animals complete me.&nbsp;
I currently live with my two cats, Puma (a rescue), and Luna, (my Covid saving grace.)&nbsp;
&nbsp;
What can I offer for you and your beloved pets?&nbsp;
I will come to your home, up to twice a day. (More per our arrangement for those animals in need of high care and love) All animals will be greeted with love, pats, and cuddles.&nbsp;&nbsp;
As I have an insight into how animals feel, I will allow timid and or rescues to come to me when they are comfortable, rather than pushing them. It doesn’t usually take long, unless they have experienced severe trauma. It’s all about building trust, and for them to feel safe.&nbsp;&nbsp;
I will feed them as per your instructions; change water bowls daily, and brush if requested. I will clean up any doggy or kitty DoDo’s if needed. Time permitting; I will have a quick play in your yard with your dog, or inside stimulus with your pet.&nbsp;
&nbsp;I offer Dog walking on lead, as an additional service. I also offer to take iPhone photos or short videos of your furry family and send to you for peace of mind that they are settled, looked after, and loved.&nbsp;
If there were any emergencies, I would take them to your vet of choice, after a phone call to you to talk things through, or any other arrangements that you may have put in place.
I am happy to give medication where needed, if your animal is easy to administer, otherwise let me know your tricks to make it successful. I have only done needling on sheep, so I'm not really experienced with injecting medications, however I am happy to learn.
If I am walking your Dog, I am happy to encourage basic commands as per your instruction. I usually get a dog to sit, before crossing roads. (My cats also sit before I put their evening meal out ha ha)&nbsp;
I am also happy to water any indoor plants if needed, and collect any mail.&nbsp;
I have been pet sitting (including rescues) and dog walking privately for a number of years, and can provide feedback by previous clients if needed.&nbsp;&nbsp;
I have walked dogs from 8 kgs to 54 kg, and everything in-between.&nbsp;
I have also helped with the re-homing of a Wolf Hound X, as her owners could no longer look her after. I am happy to say that Molly now has a lovely home and family she can call her own.&nbsp;&nbsp;
I am very down to Earth, honest, reliable and trustworthy person. What you see, is what you get. Just ask you pet! ;)&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Love to hear from you, if you think I may be a great fit you both yourself, and especiallyyour furry babies.&nbsp;
Sam
