As an animal lover growing up and having all the pets from tortoises and fish to cats and dogs, I decided to study Zoology at University. I loved it so much I even went on to do my masters. Following that, I worked as an animal care assistant in a veterinary practice, volunteered in puppy training classes and currently work for the SPCA as a Foster Coordinator. As my role is only part-time, I'm looking for some extra-time working with animals and to fill the void of a pet-less house due to my landlord not allowing me to have any pets!

I have lots of exeperience over the past 10 years of dog sititng/walking/training; from spaniels and Shih Tzu's to x-airport sniffer beagles and staffy crosses, to energetic saluki's and collies! I also have experience with cat sitting, from 5 day cat sits in London to 3 week cat & dog sits in Christchurch. 

I am happy to provide up to my 5 most recent cat and dog sit references so you can get a sense of who I am and my caring work with their beloved fur babies. 

I am caring, organised and a good communicator and can provide you with regular dog walking services, house drop ins and short-longer pet sits. Whether you need just a little helping hand weekly or someone to take good care of your babies whilst you are away, I am more than happy to help and treat them like they were my own. 

Dog walking services: from short walks to long day hikes, paddle-boarding and sea-swimming if you have a water-loving pup!

Promise to send daily updates and great pictures of your fur baby having a wonderful time!

I have my own transport and a current police check (conducted by the SPCA).

I look forward to hearing from you :)
