About Penny

Hey my name is Penny Gilbert. I am a head registered veterinary nurse in a 1 at opinion vet hospital. I have been a veterinary nurse for 10 years now. I have a full UK driving licence and own my own car.

Alongisde my nursing I carry out a range of different pet services such as cat sitting dog boarding (this includes daily walks) dog sitting, small animal sitting and dog walking. I think it’s important that your beloved pet is looked after by Proffisonally trained personal. because of the nature of my work I am able to look after animals that need special requirements such as medications, injections and behaviour needs.

I have looked after multiple doggies and cats with in my own home and at their Home. At work I am known as the dog whisperer as I do not hesitate with the more challenging doggy and normally end up becoming best If friends with them. I am also a proud certificated cat friendly nurse who is registered under the ISFM as a specialised cat friendly advocate.

I have 2 rescued chihuahuas myself one who is diabetic and another who is emotionally challenged. This is mainly with people but we have worked out that with several meetings outside in a mural place he gets use to other dogs and I'll quite frequently end up playing with them after a few visits. One is his best friends is a giant black lab who he is besotted with. So I would ask if you were wanting us to look after your doggie then we arrange meets and greets in advance otherwise we would not be able to accommodate the care you are seeking.

As a pet owner myself I know it can be very worrying for you to leave Your fur baby behind. So if you would like your fur baby to be looked after by a trust worthy qualified person and to highest gold standard then look no further. My ultimate aim is for your fur baby to have just As much fun as you will when you are away I will also send you pictures, videos and video calls daily if requested :).

I knew as soon as I met Penny that our two cats would be looked after with care. She spent her first visit spending time to get to know them and she was interested to hear all about them. I had no doubt that our loved ones were in the best possible hands while me and my family were away on holiday. I would recommend Penny as a fantastic cat-sitter, who also cared for our hamster and goldfish. She was caring, informed and trustworthy, she is also a lovely personality with an obvious love of animals and for their well-being. I will not hesitate to contact Penny again in the future.

Penny was very professional, she sent me photos of my girls while we were out and even gave my disabled cat Lucy her meds...I would highly recommend her especially as she is a true animal lover and vetinary nurse
