I'm new to the area and I live with a furbaby of my own. A very cute mini lop. Because of this I am unable to offer pet sitting in my own house, but I don't mind looking after your little ones in your own house. I currently don't drive so at the moment you would need to be in walking distance or near a train station.
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 loved 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.

Most trustworthy housesitter we’ve ever had
I don't think there can be a better pet sitter than Charmaine. She is amazing and my pets really love her. I worry like most pet owners do when leaving pets when going on holiday but there was no need, I had photos and videos of the pets every single day which made my trip much more enjoyable. I came home to find my home well looked after too. I have asked Charmaine to petsit for me before and will definitely be asking her again. She is amazing, really five star!! Highly recommend her.
