I wanted to start with that I am the cat's parent by my own. And this is the reason why it brought me here.
I live in Cambridge but originally I come from Ukraine. have degree in clinical psychology and now working in mental health for the charity organization. In my free time I am doing pet sitting with my partner for all around the world (so if you book me for housesitting I normally do it with my husband Nazar, he is a software engineer supporting his wife's passion and sharing love to animals with me). With any other services: pet visits, dog walking it is only me.
It's been always my pleasure to look after animals, I am doing it because being around animals always makes me feel so happy. I am friendly, easy-going and trustworthy person. If you book with me, be sure that I would never cancel the booking and be there for you.
I know like nobody else how painful it is to leave your furry baby while you are away and what we can do to make our pet feel safe and comfortable. I do know and care about family values a lot.
Whole my life I have been surrounded by animals. I can’t put it into words how much I love them. I am that weird person, who stops in order to talk to each cow and frog, as well as I always adore owners with different dogs on a walk. Unfortunately, now I don't have an opportunity to have a dog or any other animals due to renting a property, but this is one of my biggest dreams in future. To fulfil that small part of my big dream I want to spend the time with different pets as much as it is possible. I am ready for their challenging behaviour as well, because I am the owner of the spoiled cat by my own, it can be uneasy sometimes, but still worth it. Soo much worth it :)
Talking about my experience I can start with the fact that I have had a cat for eleven years now, we've moved to another country with her and I always take the best care of her.
I used to have a dachshund dog in my childhood, that was the best time with my sausage buddy, I fed him and went for a walk all the time.
Also I have the experience taking care of fish, rats, a guinea pig, a hamster, a chinchilla, they all were my pets and I was that responsible kid cleaning their crates and feeding them.
Also since lockdowns I am a keen gardener and always glad to take care of your plants.
I am stress-resilient and this is my strong side, I am that kind of person who always finds the best and fastest way in resolving any situation.
And now a bit of details about services I offer:
Cat/small pet visits: approx 30 mins pet visit, cleaning a crate, feeding and playing with pet, sending pictures and videos to owner.
Dog walking: 40 min (or longer) walk, playing with dog, picking up the poo, we can go to the familiar places you are normally go for a walk with your dog.
Overnight stay (For this service it will be Nazar and I). Staying with your pet for a 24h, doing daily routines of your pet, dog walking (one long walk and one short walk, depends on pet's preferences). Keeping your house clean and tidy. Keeping you updated with how our day is going.
Before booking I am happy to meet with you for "meet and greet" (free of charge). You could introduce me to your pet and show me where do you keep all the stuff to take care of your pet. Also you could share with me all the details about your pet's temper, what it likes, it's quirks and how do you normally cope with it.

Kateryna and Nazar looked after our two dogs for the weekend and we couldn't have asked for more. They always kept us informed of how they were doing, sent lots of photos and videos of which we loved. When we got home both the dogs seemed happy and content and the house was sparkly clean. We couldn't imagine using anyone else now to look after our dogs, so will hopefully use them again and again in the future.
Kateryna and Nazar were exactly what we’d hoped for. They are trustworthy, reliable, communicated with us throughout our time away and most importantly for us they clearly cared about our dogs. We arrived home to two content and tired puppies. We can’t thank them enough for their kindness and the respect that they gave to our dogs and our home.
