I absolutely love animals and have always had cats at home. I am active in animal rescue (most of my profile photos are of me in Romania helping with stray dogs). I have also fostered and rehomed numerous cats and kittens. And I am a frequent visitor to St Tiggywinkles dropping off injured wildlife!
I'm unable to have any more animals than I've already got, so what's the best way to meet more of the lovely creatures ....? Pet sitting! You can rest assured that your furry family member would be cared for by me as if they were my own! In rescue and fostering, I've met animals of all different temperaments and find every single one adorable - and know that with patience even the wariest animal wants to make friends, as long as we respect their terms for doing so.
Many of my cats have lived to a ripe old age of 20 or more, and so - inevitably - I have a lot of experience of giving medication and also spotting when a vet visit is necessary.
I now work part-time so am able to make morning visits or evening visits - or both! - depending on your pet's needs. A walk in the morning, a bowl of food, a cuddle, or a quick hello. Whatever you feel appropriate is what I will do - I'm not offended by a cat who ignores me or phased by a dog that jumps up at me.
I'm also very happy to water plants, put post somewhere safe, draw curtains, switch lights on and off ... All part of the service!

Lynn was very friendly and reliable, she looked after Ella for a couple of days while we were away and she gave me regular updates via text messages. She bonded with her straight away and took good care of her. I would definitely recommend Lynn as a pet sitter!
Lynn was absolutely fantastic & I felt confident my cat would be well loved and looked after while we were away.
I wouldn’t hesitate recommending Lynn and have already booked her for our next trip away.
Years and years of experience with cats and dogs - my own, fosters and strays.
