I live with 2 furbabies of my own. A mini lop and a Netherland Dwarf in Bellingham. Because of my pets I am unable to offer pet sitting in my own house, but I don't mind travelling to look after your little ones in your own house. I normally do areas around South East London but I do venture further afield depending on the situation, so please ask if you aren't in those areas. I regularly look after fur babies in Twickenham and Richmond areas as well as Central London.
This is much more than a job to me, I love animals and spending time with them. I find it very therapeutic and relaxing. I have grown up with pets my entire life. At one point our family had 8 cats, 2 budgies and 4 koi carp! We were definitely a cat household until my brother got a chocolate labrador, Samson, who we love dearly.I love anything furry (except spiders, I have an extreme phobia of them, sorry!) and have experience looking after cats, dogs, budgies, hamsters, rabbits, parrots, tortoises and fish.
I have experience looking after pets that need medication or special care.
I have looked after both young and elderly dogs, cats and rabbits that need medications, creams, drops and even extra cuddles. I am also DBS (previously CRB) checked.

Best Catsitter ever. Charmaine is the only person we trust with our furbaby :)
Charmaine is a great friend for our dogs. We can’t imagine anyone better.
