With over 6 years experience in pet sitting and 2 years experience as a veterinary receptionist, I have a keen eye for animal behaviour and what to look out for in terms of illness and injury. I am dedicated to ensuring that your furry family members are safe, comfortable, and happy during your time away.
As a pet owner, over the years I always struggled to find someone to stay with my cats/reptiles when I wanted to go on holiday. As my cats have medical issues and one is extremely anxious, they are not able to cope with drop in visits alone and need someone to stay with them overnight.
When I heard friends, colleagues and neighbours having the same issue, I naturally started volunteering to look after their pets. I always had such positive feedback and was often called "the cat whisperer" as stressed/anxious pets always warmed to me very quickly.
After years of contemplating whether I could make a living out of keeping pets safe & happy, in 2023 I took the plunge and finally set up my small business!
It has been a great journey so far with many ups and downs, I have honed my onboarding process, gained amazing clients and set healthy boundaries for myself. I was also voted 'Neighbourhood Fave' on Nextdoor.co.uk for 'Best Pet Services' which was a wonderful surprise!
I am so glad I took this leap and I can't wait to meet more wonderful pets!
I started with Cosy Cats & Critters in 2024 originally to assist with the increasing amount of admin work that comes with pet sitting. Lauren then trained me up to work as a pet sitter alongside her and to cover dates when she is unavailable and it has been a great journey so far.
I have a lot experience from over the years pet sitting for friends and family including drop ins and overnight stays, training our boisterous rescue Alfie and volunteering with the RSPCA. I really developed an understanding for animal behaviour and the patience pets need to feel safe and relaxed.
I can't wait to care for more pets and give them a mini holiday whilst their pet parents are away.
