George

Hi I'm George, a Third year Vet student studying at University of Bristol.

I've always wanted to work with animals but I'm still a few years off becoming a full vet and so pet sitting is the perfect combination of working with animals along with my studies. I want as much hands on experience with a wide variety of animals to help and aid me to become the best vet I can.

I have previous experience of owning a cat and pet chickens (not at the same time) and looked after friends dogs. Due to my university course I have spent over 12 weeks in a variety of animals husbandry roles from farm animals to horses to zoos. I have also worked as an animal care assistant and receptionist at a small animal veterinary clinic. This job involved admitting and handling of patients into the practice, cleaning and setting up cat, dog and exotic kennels, regular checking, entertaining/playing, feeding and walking of in patients. This along with the teachings from vet school has given me a firm understanding of animal care and husbandry. 

I live in the central/southern Bristol area however area further a field can also be considered and viable as I own a car.

Overall I hope my passion and previous experiences caring for animals will make all owners feel comfortable they can rely on me to look after their beloved pets.
