Hi there! I'm Elizabeth, 48yrs old and I live in Bicester, Oxfordshire.
My husband and I own businesses and I only work part-time & remotely, which gives me incredible freedom. So I can be available at short notice, am happy to do very short/ 1 night sits and weekdays, which I know can be difficult for some people. I have my own car so can get to any location.
I will be solo-sitting, as my husband will stay home with our 17yr old dog, Bridget Jones. So at the moment I'm looking to do short sits (up to 3 nights), and fairly local.
I can promise to take the absolute best care of your fur babies, as if they were my own, and also take excellent care of your home. I'm very clean, tidy, conscientious and respectful. I don't smoke or vape.
I regularly look after several dogs of varying sizes and ages - see my photos for a few of the 'usual suspects'. I look after my brother’s family pack quite often, which includes 2 large dogs, 3 cats and numerous guinea pigs, chinchillas and even bald rats! They also used to have chickens. I had my own horse for many years when I was younger, so I've a lot of experience with all sorts of animals.
We rescued a stray dog, who we named Sailor (as we found him abandoned in a marina in Greece) in 2019. We sorted his rescue & care in Greece, his transport over to the UK, had him live with us while he settled in, and found him a loving forever home with a friend.
I am extremely used to administering all sorts of medication as in the last couple of years, Bridget has had some health issues - major surgery on both eyes, her spleen removed, and in April 2024 she had Vestibular Syndrome. I nursed her through all those times, which involves lots of care and attention - after one of her surgeries I had to make a spreadsheet because she was having so many medications (drops/ tablets/ creams), and I am meticulous with things like that. So I'm very comfortable with caring for older animals and those than need medication. Bridget is now partially sighted and lives at a slower pace, but we have just adapted and it doesn't stop her loving life!
