About Roisin

About me

I've loved and cared for pets at home ranging from dogs, cats, guinea pigs, chickens, ducks, etc. Since I was small I volunteered at animal shelters such as the ISPCA in Wexford, Ireland with my grandmother, as well as some time at the Moggery Cat Centre in Bristol. We even had donkeys, pigs, horses, and a peacock on my Nanny's farm as a kid.

The majority of my pets are rescue and have individual needs and personalities that I cherish. Friends, family, and neighbours have trusted me to walk, feed, and give attention to their pets when away. I'm responsible, reliable, trustworthy, and treat each animal as they were my own 💗

I am finishing my studies at university but I can organise myself easily to be able for 24/7 supervision if needed. I have a car and can collect, drive for walking spots, etc. Clean license and have been driving for 6+ years. 

My services

I am happy to do day sits, overnights, walks, drop ins etc., but am not currently able to host from my home.

At most I typically do around 2 hours worth of walking a day, usually twice a day, but can do more or less, whatever is close to their usual routine. I am more than happy to travel somewhere nice for this rather than the same old nearby parks. I like to give the dogs some adventure and take them on different types of walks and terrains. I like to keep owners reassured with regular updates and photographs throughout the stay. 🍃

I can give daily brushing/baths/grooming, or take to the local groomers if requested. 🛀

I have experience grooming and administering medication (orally only). The closest vet is a 5 minutes drive and open daily in case of emergency. 🩺

Thank you for reading

p.s.

Before your pets stay I will need to know their age, health/dietary conditions, emergency contact numbers and any behavioural needs.

I look forward to meeting you and your pets and looking after them whilst you're away.
