I'm a Plymouth University graduate of Marine Biology and Oceanography, now back home in Leicester, I would love to continue this job back home!
For my placement year, I worked as a husbandry technician at my university’s lower vertebrate and invertebrate lab. I previously worked as a husbandry volunteer at a sea turtle rescue centre in Greece.
I used to pet sit 2 cats from a friend of mine in Greece, one of which is partially blind and deaf, so I'm used to working with animals with 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 brother's two dogs regularly.
I cannot do pet boarding, but I can do dog walking and pet sitting or just house check-ins, keeping an eye on your pets while 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, rodents, cats and dogs!
I'm available for most pet walks after 1 PM on weekdays but available all day at weekends.
Due to my reliance on public transport, I can do any morning visits from 9 am but no earlier, I don't mind travelling long distances as long as there is a bus route to you <3
In my spare time, I do long walks, if your pet requires long-distance walks (~3 hours), I am willing to do so!
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
We cannot recommend Ky highly enough!This is the second time we have used her. She fed and spent quality time with our cat, and gave us detailed updates.
Just sorry that she will be leaving Plymouth soon and no longer available.
Wish her all the best in the future.
Ky is a very professional and caring sitter, her attention to detail is immaculate and her love of animals really shines through. Ky was flexible with hours as my shifts changed part way through the engagement and she was still able to cover the additional time. Ky made the process very easy as a first time user of sitting services she explained the process very well, suggested we meet up before the house sitting for a short walk with Jimi, so I could see how they were together and to cover any requirements for the sitting engagement. diet, medication, walk schedules, where he usually goes etc. The engagement went very well with good communication and updates on how Jimi was doing, with updates on his food,walk and toilet. so I always knew how Jimi was doing. very happy with the service, I will definitely be using Ky again.
