My passion is animals. I have a degree in Zoology from the University of Nottingham which has led me to pursue a career in animal and nature education. I'm currently the education officer for an environmental centre in Uxbridge four days a week so if your home is local to Uxbridge I can house sit (Because I'm a teacher I am DBS/CRB checked).
I'm unfortunately not allowed pets of my own because I rent and I really miss having that quality time with my parent's dog and cat. So I'm looking to offer my services as a dog walker and pet sitter to look after your special ones. I have experience caring for cats, dogs and some exotic pets like chinchillas, snakes, reptiles. I also have a lot of experience looking after chickens so I'm up for the challenge of the more unusual pets.
I work Mondays to Thursdays in Uxbridge so if your pet is comfortable being left alone during the day I can do short stay house sitting during the week. If not I'm available some weekends.
I can some dog walking, I finish work at 4.30 pm so I am happy to pop over to walk dogs after work.
I can offer local dog walks around your area of any length and time, and I also have a car so I can transport your dog to nature reserves for longer walks if they need a lot of exercise (my parents have a collie cross so I'm very used to energetic long walks with lots of ball throwing).
For pets that don't need walks, I am happy to pop in and fill up food and water bowls, clean litter trays and cages, and spend some quality time for cuddles and playtime.
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
Our favourite sitter. Thank you Emily.
We’re so glad we’ve found Emily! She’s great with our pooch and we are planning to use her on a weekly basis!
I have a degree in Zoology and have worked in wildlife rescue centres and education centres where animal care was part of my responsibilities. I've looked after animals such as snakes, reptiles, insects, rabbit and chickens.
