I've been looking after people’s cats and dogs (and chickens, fish and guinea pigs too!) in my local area for about 7 years. I often stay over night for a week or two while owners are away - I try to keep the pets routine how they like it so they feel comfortable. I love animals and have animal welfare training. I'm great with anxious pets and am also happy to take in mail and water your garden while you are away. I'm also very good with aggressive cats and giving pets medication. 30min dogwalking sessions up to twice a day are included in my fee - I'm open to negotiating if your pup needs more than this. I'm in my midlife so my partying days are over, and I don't drink or smoke. I love to contact owners with photos and updates while you are away from your pets but I'm terrible at selfies (see gallary!). I have two cats who are my whole world, Claude and Coco, and have had cats my whole life. Claude and Coco are very good with other cats and with small dogs so a pet stay at my place can be arranged for select pets. I also make a very comfortable cushion so many of my photos are of cats and dogs lying on me for cuddles and naps!
