I'm a qualified vet nurse with over 8 years experience. I have professional experience with both cats and dogs, and personal experience caring for small parrots and tropical fish/aquariums. I am capable in caring for pets with any special needs or medical conditions who may require regular medications (including injections). I have a cat of my own so I'm unfortunately not able to offer pet care services in my home, but I can offer 1 - 2 visits a day in your home & dog walking services if requested. I also offer regular dog walking services as a stand alone service.

After several years of housesitting and pet sitting for family and friends, I've decided to offer this to others as well. I am very attentive with my own cat's care and who I allow to care for her if I'm away, so I understand how important it is to find the right person to care for your pet. I pride myself on being able to provide high standards of care both at work and in my pet sitting endeavours. Nothing is ever 'too much' when it comes to your pet's care and I will always do my best to maintain their normal routine for their comfort while you're away.

Throughout my career, I have worked in multiple general practice veterinary clinics. My current job however is in a specialist referral hospital working mostly with cats. We see a lot of cases of sick cats whose owners need to continue their care at home. I see how difficult and stressful this can be for clients and so I was motivated to offer professional assistance at home to help support pet owners caring for their pets with complex conditions and/or medical devices to assist in their recovery. This is something I am excited to be able to offer on top of pet sitting as an additional service for those clients who need a little extra support at home with their pets. Please feel free to contact me regarding this service if you have any questions or inquires.
