About Ky

I'm a university student based in Plymouth City Centre studying Marine Biology and Oceanography!

For my placement year I had worked at my university’s lower vertebrate and invertebrate lab as a husbandry technician. I previously worked at a sea turtle rescue centre in Greece as a husbandry volunteer. 

I used to pet sit 2 cats from a friend of mine in Greece, one which one is partially blind and deaf, so I'm used to working with animals that have physical disabilities. 

Pets have always been a part of my house from fish to rabbits to even Desert Locust! I house sit for my granddad’s dog and dogs-sit my brothers three dogs on a regular basis, two are puppies and one is an elder.

I'm unable to do pet boarding as I live in a student accommodation but I am available for dog walking and pet sitting or just house check-ins In Plymouth, keeping an eye on your pets whilst you're away!

I don't drive so I rely on public transport to travel long distances!

I have experience with lower vertebrates + invertebrates, reptiles, cats and dogs!

I'm available for most pet walks after 13PM on weekdays but available all-day weekends.

My lectures start at 9am, so I am able to do any early morning visits from 6-8am, I dont mind traveling long distances In Plymouth this year but during my second semester I will only be able to take on jobs in and around the city centre <3

In my spare time I do walk to Saltram and back so if your pet requires long distance walks (~3 hours), I am willing to do so!

Ky looked after our 8 boy rats for a few days while we were away. Rats can be quite difficult to take care of but Ky did a fantastic job! We had our worries about leaving the rats for the first time but she really put us at ease both before and during our trip. Some of our boys required medication and this all went really smoothly with no issues! We returned home to happy, healthy rats and we would recommend Ky to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, professional and definitely animal loving pet sitter.

Ky was absolutely incredible, I felt so at ease leaving my cats in her care. Brilliant communication and her love of animals shines through. Could not recommend enough!
