About Me

I am an experienced Primary School Teacher, currently working as a flexible Supply Teacher, with an enormous love for animals. I have grown up surrounded by pets, including hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, dogs, cats and fish, and caring for animals has always been a significant part of my life.

As an adult, I lovingly cared for our elderly cat, who was my absolute world. More recently, I adopted a younger cat, Elsie, who has quickly become my next fur baby. Both cats have required support with medication and behavioural challenges, including anxiety related to changes in their environment. I have worked alongside a qualified animal behaviourist to ensure they received the best possible care and enjoyed a happy, fulfilling life.

I also have voluntary experience within a veterinary surgery, where I assisted and learned about pet care within the operating area. This gave me valuable insight into animal welfare and the needs of pets receiving medical treatment.

I am passionate about continuing to develop my knowledge of animal care and have completed courses including:

• Understanding Pet Sitting and Dog Walking
• Pet First Aid and CPR
• Understanding Mammals 

Testimonial 

I have known Joanne for 7 years. During that time, I have had the opportunity to work with her, putting together care plans to enhance welfare and care of companion animals in her care.

Her attention to detail, understanding of animal health and welfare and love of animals means she can be totally relied upon to care for your beloved pet.
