Hi, My name is Jo and I am 53 years old and I live with my husband Nick. I have been an animal lover all my life and have worked with animals all my adult life. I am currently the Sanctuary Manager in a cat rescue which I absolutely love. I have had lots of animals of my own which include Cats, Dogs, Hamsters, Gerbils, Rabbits, Guinea pigs, Mice, Lizards, Budgies, Cockatiels, Tropical Fish and have even fostered some Hedgehogs. My children have all grown up and left home so I have the time to spend doing what I love best. We lost our Yorkshire Terrier in lockdown which was so upsetting. She was 16 and had a lot of health issues and I do now really miss having a dog. We've also had a German Shepherd, a Labrador, Jack Russell and 2 other Yorkshire Terriers. In my current job with the cats I have to give any medication that's needed and can inject diabetic cats too. I currently have 7 cats and 2 mice that I saved from one of my cats. I am understanding of animals' needs as I have to do this on a daily basis when the cats come into our sanctuary and I would treat your pets in exactly the same way and care for them as if they were my own. I know myself how you worry when you go away so I would like to be able to put your mind at rest. The maximum sleepovers I can do is 2 nights.  I have been doing pet sitting for friends and family for a long time now and it's something that I take very seriously as I know how much our pets mean to us.
