I am a responsible, reliable and physically active PhD student with lots of pet experience and a flexible routine that can work around you. After several years on Trusted Housesitters and many 5* reviews (see my photo gallery), I'm hoping to look after some pets closer to home in my spare time! 

DOGS: I have experience looking after many breeds and sizes of dogs. I grew up with family spaniels from pups, and have since looked after schnauzers, beagles, bedlington whippets, lab-pitt mixes, terriers, as well as a range of rescue dogs. I'm comfortable working with and handling puppies, anxious dogs (including separation anxiety) and leash-reactive dogs. I have experience giving medication and doing the more menial tasks of dog-ownership including post poo-roll baths, teeth brushing, and anal gland excretion...you name it! I'm an active person and will keep your canine pal happy and exhausted with walks in all of Cambridge's green spaces, cuddles and fuss, and routine-respectful housesitting. I've lived in Cambridge since 2017, so I know all the good walking and running routes!

CATS: I have catsat extensively for friends and those on Trusted Housesitters, in the UK, New York, and New Jersey. I have a knack for reading a cat's behaviour, from whether it wants to play or have some alone time. I'm extremely comfortable with litter boxes, indoor/outdoor cats, and all kinds of play. 

I'm available in the Cambridge area for dog walking, cat visits, and cat/dog homesitting. I'm house proud and a keen gardener, so I will water your plants and take care of your home like it's my own. I research and teach for the university, so my schedule is flexible as I mostly work from home. I think and write best with an animal by my feet and I'd love to make friends with yours!
