Catherine

Hello pet owners - I'm a 25-year-old big animal lover currently living in Lightwater.

I absolutely love animals, having had various cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, lizards and hamsters in the past.

I love exploring new places but feel everywhere is best discovered with an animal by your side.

I am able to provide a range of services, whether that’s popping in to have a cuddle with your cat or taking your dog on a hike. I work as an Occupational Therapist in the NHS with older adults (and am therefore fully DBS checked so you know I am reliable & trustworthy).

Home visits: When visiting your pet to give it some fresh food & water, clean out any litter trays and most importantly a cuddle, I usually spend about half an hour to an hour with them. Social interaction is as important as any other need to ensure your pet doesn't get lonely.

Dog walks: Length of dog walks can vary depending on location. I live near Lightwater Park so can easily spend a few hours exploring there. I am happy to tailor the walk to the need of your pet, i.e. shorter routes for older and lazier dogs!

House sitting: When house sitting I will spend most of the day with your pet to ensure all its needs are met.

I will sleepover and keep them company at night.

I currently own a tabby cat called Bella who was rescued from Battersea. In the past, I have also volunteered from time to time at the Oxfordshire Animal Sanctuary which I really enjoyed. I know how important it is for pet owners leaving their pets to be able to actually enjoy their time away without having to worry, which is what I aim to achieve through excellent communication to ensure owners are kept up to date as much or as little as needed.

If desired I am happy to send daily photo updates of your pets. I am super flexible and happy to work around your pets' needs. I also have access to a car.

Please feel free to send me any questions :)
