Dog Walking and Pet Sitting
| Hi, I'm Rebecca and I have lived and worked with animals for as long as I can remember. I am currently offering pet care at your home, whether it's dog walking, feeding, or company for cats. I don't mind too much about the size of the dog, as long as larger breeds aren't too strong and all are friendly. When it comes to cats and small animals, anything goes. I can do daily home visits to clean cages and litter trays, feed and water or even just check in. I am also happy to send updates and photos, whether you're away for a long period or just for the day. I am fully insured and look forward to meeting you!

I would 100% recommend Rebecca to any one looking for a trustworthy dog sitter. This is the first time I have left my 9 month old puppy. Nala (my puppy) instantly warmed to Rebecca. We were away for a few days at which Rebecca stayed at our home looking after Nala. Our home was well respected by Rebecca. Nala seemed to have a great time with the updates provided by Rebecca. We will be using Rebecca moving forward should we ever need a dog sitter! Thanks again for looking after Nala. "

New to the business but experienced pet owner - Teacher with some hours of care to spare!
| I have been a pet owner of dogs and cats for many years both as a child and as an adult. As a Teacher, I'm out of the house all day so owning my own dog would be unfair but having the opportunity to help care for someone else's would make up for this. I currently have a cat so very experienced in their peculiar ways and foibles!

I have always had dogs growing up. I started off both house sitting and looking after my friends and/or family's pets. When I would walk my own dog, I would offer to take friend's or neighbour's dogs with me. Then, when my neighbour or friends were going on holiday etc, they would ask me if I would look after their beloved pets for them. I now run a small, friendly service looking after people's animals. Whether you intend to go away for a day, a week or weekend, I can come around and feed your animals and give them all the care they need. I am trustworthy, friendly, reliable and professional. I can do daily visits or overnight care in the comfort of your own home. I offer daily care, feeding, bathing, playtime, long walks, puppy training and anything else you may need. I can provide both employer and personal references. I will be happy to answer any questions you may have. Thanks for reading. Hope to hear from you soon! Michelle.

DBS certified, reliable, upbeat lady with a passion for animals
| I have a real passion for all types of animals and have had much personal and professional experience in taking care of different species. Including, but not limited to, dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, horses, fish and birds. Full DBS certificate available for online viewing if required. In the interest of full transparency, I do have daily job but I usually finish around 12:30 pm so I can be there for your furry loved ones for the rest of the day if needed. One of the upsides to my job is that I have to walk between 5 and 8 miles each day so I'm not one to shy away from a good long, healthy walk with your 4 legged friends. In person card payments are also accepted for ease, extra security and e-receipts.
