Hello!
My name is Kelly. I'm a huge animal lover. I have been volunteering and working within the veterinary profession caring for cats, dogs and small furies for the past 9 years. For the last 4 years, I have been dog walking and dog and cat sitting for a company in London. I have experience medicating animals (eg. diabetic injections, eye and ear drops, oral medications) and I am comfortable working with small and large breed dogs. I have a wonderful german shepherd dog (Arya) who now lives with my parents back home. I took her to training classes, so I have some experience and loads of patience with dog training. Although I have never been a cat owner, I have looked after several and upon owner's requests have taken a few cats on lead walks through the park.
I am available for: dog walking, home visits and house sitting. Whether it is a quick walk or an overnight stay, I always like to keep owners updated with a photo or video of their pet(s). I'm based in Bath and have my own vehicle. If you think I'd be a good fit for you and your pet(s) please get in contact.

I've only got good things to say about Kelly. She was prompt to make time for a first visit, and then kept us posted with daily updates when she came by to catsit. She took good care of them, made sure they were all good food-wise as she only came by every other day. She also took care of any mess in the house, put out the trash and we found everything clean and neat when we came back. Thanks ! 10/10.
We have had Kelly look after our cats on a couple of occasions now. She is very kind and calm and very good with the cats.
Her communication is excellent and she was so helpful when we had a delivery crisis involving our frozen dog food.
My cats obviously love her. I swear Ted recognised her even though it had been a very long time. He was straight up to her feet when she walked in the door and that was before we went away.
I highly recommend her services.
