Hi, I'm Meg! I'm a passionate animal lover with a degree in Animal Behaviour and Welfare, and I've made it my lifelong goal to work with animals. Having grown up with dogs and cats, I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets as if they were their own. I have over 8 years of experience in dog walking, pet sitting, and training, alongside numerous accredited animal care and behaviour courses. Throughout my career, I've worked in a variety of environments including rescue kennels, private dog nannying, dog walking and pet sitting services, puppy classes, doggy daycare centres, and residential dog training facilities. This diverse experience has allowed me to work with dogs of all breeds, sizes, personalities, and behavioural needs, ensuring I can provide tailored care for every individual pet. I'm also a lifelong cat owner and currently share my home with three wonderful rescue cats. Alongside caring for my own cats, I have experience working in a cattery and looking after family and friends' cats for many years. I understand that every cat has their own routine and personality, and I always aim to make them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you're away. I currently work part-time three days a week, which gives me availability during the week and on selected weekends. My calendar is regularly updated to reflect my availability. At present, I primarily offer dog walking and drop-in home visits for cats and dogs . However, if you require additional services such as pet sitting, please feel free to get in touch and I'll always do my best to accommodate your needs. During home visits, I ensure your pet receives attentive, personalised care. This includes refreshing water, feeding if required, administering oral medication, garden time where appropriate, and plenty of companionship through play, cuddles, and grooming. I can also incorporate basic training exercises and enrichment activities to help keep your pet mentally stimulated. My dog walks are designed to be much more than just exercise. With my background in behaviour and welfare, I focus on providing both physical activity and mental enrichment through scent work, engagement games, training exercises, and problem-solving activities, helping your dog enjoy a more fulfilling and rewarding experience. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and providing them with the highest standard of love and care while you're away! 🐾
