About Leaf

Hello, my name is Leaf! :) 

I have just completed my Zoology degree at Anglia Ruskin University, and am looking to build a career working with animals. Before going to university, I studied Animal Managent at Solihull Collage, working with a verity of animals. I have experience in handling, feeding, and caring for cats, dogs, small mammals, livestock and reptiles.

I have worked in a reptile shop, handling and caring for lizards, snakes and invertebrates, and have volunteered with various rescues such as the Blue Cross, RSPCA, and The Dog Bus. I worked with both dogs and cats, feeding and socialising. I have also photographed several events with the RSPCA, for the Coventry Bikers charity rides and Santa paws. As well as some basic pet photography.

In my spare time, I enjoy wildlife photography. Travelling and hiking to get the best shots. I have a few pets of my own (cats, dog, guinea pig, and a gecko), who I train and care for.

I am available for as long as you need to pet sit and/or walk animals. I am willing to sit with pets that need the extra company and go on adventures with dogs and over training routines if needed. Although I have experience in dog training I am not a professional. 

I also have a love for nature and plants, so if you have any plants that need caring for I am able to do so. 

House sits include: 

  • Feeding and watering (as instructed). 
  • Cleaning after animals (litter trays, enclosures etc). 
  • Enrichment for animals that want it. 
  • Messages with daily updates and photos.
  • Walks/training (if needed). 
  • Basic grooming (where needed). 
  • Plant care (if needed). 
  • Leaf's services

    House Sitting

    This was the first time that we’d used a house-sitter to look after our dog, and our experience with Leaf was a really positive one. She was very responsive to messages, sent regular updates on how our dog was doing, and kept the house clean and tidy. We would certainly use her services again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to others as well.

    Leaf is a very trustworthy and experienced petsitter. She was fantastic with my pet bunny, so much so I've booked Leaf to petsit again! 🌟

    I speak English
    +5 years of experience
    Familiar with dog training techniques
    I have cared for a variety of pets most of my life. This includes cats, dogs, rats, guinea pigs, hamsters, geckos and bearded dragons. I’ve worked in a pet and reptile shop, and done voluntary work at my local dog shelter. I have a merit in animal management which has provided me with experience in handling and animal husbandry for reptiles (snakes and lizards), cats, dogs, small mammals some livestock (donkeys, goats, ducks, chickens) and some exotic mammals (skunks, meerkats, hedgehogs, etc). I can preform basic training and grooming, as well as basic health checks. I have just completed my Zoology degree.
