Virag

I am a friendly, reliable and experienced animal lover in BS5. I only cover the BS5 area for visits, other areas might be considered for house sitting.

I've had pets all my life, growing up in the countryside we always had cats and dogs, and later in my adult life I had house rabbits for 12 years.

I adore CATS and DOGS equally and I have a real soft spot for BUNNIES! I am happy to look after hamsters, guinea pigs, etc. as well.

One of my rabbits lived 11 years, which is extremely long for a rabbit so it's safe to say he was really well looked after! I know how to keep rabbits safe and healthy, I'm experienced in recognising signs of ill health and I am aware that time is key when it comes to rabbits - they are such delicate little creatures!

Since 2016, when I started a new life in the UK, I have not been able to have any pets and I miss them dearly!!! I visit friends just to snuggle their cats, and I miss my mum's dogs back home just as much as I miss other family members (because that's what they are). When I look after your pet, it will not only give you a peace of mind while you're away, but it will also give me joy as I get to be around pets.

I work for a social care charity (social worker by qualification), so looking after and caring for others is my second nature - and this includes animals. I will give your pet the care that it needs: food, health needs, cuddles, play time, exercise, etc., always following your instructions.

Working in social care also means that I have an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check, which you are welcome to check.

About my services:

- Visits: I will spend at least half an hour with your pet each time and will send you photo updates.

- Daycare: I provide daycare at your home and this is up to 3 hours. It can include a walk, whatever your pet needs. (In some cases I am able to accommodate a small dog or other small pets in my home.)
