About Mary

About Me 🐾

I’ve always loved animals and have grown up surrounded by pets, so caring for them has always been a natural and enjoyable part of my life. I have also completed a degree in Veterinary Science, giving me a strong understanding of animal health, behaviour and wellbeing, alongside professional experience in pet care. I also am comfortable adminsitering medication. 

I’m happy to care for all common household pets and love getting to know their different personalities, routines and little quirks. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and independent, or simply loves some extra attention, I’ll do my best to make them feel happy and relaxed while you’re away.

🐶 Pet Sitting

My pet-sitting service is designed to keep your pets comfortable in their own familiar environment while you’re away. I can provide feeding, fresh water, playtime, exercise, cuddles and general care according to your pet’s normal routine. I’ll also make sure they have plenty of attention and companionship rather than simply being left alone.

I’m happy to follow your instructions and maintain your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible.

🐾 Pet Visits

For pets who are happier staying at home, I offer visits to check in on them and give them the care and attention they need. Visits can include feeding, refreshing water, cleaning up after them, playtime, cuddles and exercise where appropriate.

With my veterinary science background, I’m also comfortable observing animals closely and recognising when something seems unusual or out of character. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are always my priority.

❤️ My Approach

Leaving your pets in someone else’s care is a big responsibility, and I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust. My veterinary science education and lifelong love of animals mean I bring both knowledge and genuine care to every booking.

I’m happy to care for all common household pets and will take the time to understand each pet’s individual personality, routine and needs. My goal is for your pets to feel happy, relaxed and well cared for — and for you to have peace of mind while you’re away.

I am not available until November 2026.
