In a nutshell:
I'm reliable, caring and absolutely love all animals. I treat them as my own and have a lot of experience to deal with any situation.
Just a heads up I've been in th UK for most of this year and my reviews reflect this absence however, I am still active and looking for work.
An additional charge of 20% will apply for long weekends and public holidays.
_________________________________________
I’m a dedicated, reliable and hardworking animal lover. I’ve been house-sitting for 6 years and currently work part time in art therapy. In the past I have been a foster carer for Coldstream Animal Aid. I specialise in larger dog breeds but love any size pet like my own.
My House Sitting service involves me staying in your home overnight with your animals, this is best if they get anxious easily or need feeding early in the morning and at night. Please understand that due to my job and other services I cannot offer 24/7 supervison as I sit all year round. During this time I will attend to your home and animals by walking (if added), feeding, giving affection, playing with your pets, cleaning up, bringing in your bins/mail, watering plants and any other ordinary tasks that you’d like done. When you come back your house will be exactly how you left it.
My Home Visits involve me coming over to your house to feed, clean up after your pets and spend time with them. This includes bringing in mail, taking out bins, cleaning up after your pets, changing their water bowls, playing and lots of cuddles. Walking is also available in addition.
My Walking service invovles a 30 minute walk. This is an additional service to house sitting and is not included in the house sitting fee. If you want walks as a stand alone service it is $25 a walk.
I understand that every animal, owner, and situation is different and with my experience, I will tailor my services to your needs. I’m used to looking after animals with behavioural problems such as over-excitement to aggression or simpler issues such as barking or pawing. I’m happy (and trained) to look after sick or injured pets and can administer any medications they need. I’m also happy to drive your dogs to local parks or reserves if you are comfortable for me to do so.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or enquiries.

Meredith was recommended to us by our former sitter who moved out of the area. She was able to look after our 2yo calico cat Soapie on very short notice. Soapie is a shy cat and Meredith was very patient with her and sent us updates and photos every day.
I found Meredith to be very caring, trust worthy and just a lovely person. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone. Thanks Meredith 10/10!
Meredith has been SENSATIONAL! She has cared for our little Devon Rex cat beautifully. They both bonded instantly - Meredith seems to have the magic touch with animals! Meredith is responsible, reliable and caring. We will definitely keep booking her!
