I have a lifelong passion for animals and over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for my own pets, as well as looking after animals for friends and family. My aim is to provide reliable, compassionate care for pets in the comfort of their own home, where they feel safest and most relaxed.

I have recently completed a Level 3 qualification in feline welfare, care, and behaviour, which has strengthened my understanding of cat health, body language, and wellbeing. I always interact with animals on their own terms - if your cat is shy or nervous I'll check on them to make sure they are okay when I visit, but I'll let them decide when they want to come and say hello. 

I have experience in caring for cats and small animals, including rabbits, guinea pigs, and gerbils, and I am happy to look after other small pets as well. 

I will stay with your pets for up to 30 minutes and, as well as making sure your furry (or feathered, or scaly) friends are happy and well cared for, I am happy to help with practical tasks like watering plants, putting out bins, and opening or closing curtains to give your home a lived-in appearance. 

I will also provide updates and photos if you would like them. If your pet needs oral medication I will administer it as long as it can be added to their food or they will take it without much fuss - you'll just need to give me clear instructions.

I share my home with my 12-year-old cat, Totoro, who is a much-loved and very pampered companion. She probably eats better than I do!

I'm based in central Bedford, and I am happy to travel to surrounding villages. My goal is to provide a trustworthy, calm, and caring service that gives both you and your pets complete peace of mind.
