I absolutely love animals, and house and pet sitting lets me combine that passion with caring for your home while you're away. I'm based in London, originally from Hungary, but I've been happily settled in the UK for nearly 20 years.

Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember - growing up, our home was always filled with dogs, cats, and a few more unusual pets too. I'm comfortable looking after pretty much any furry or feathered friend, though I'll be honest that reptiles and spiders aren't really my thing!

I have a Wirehaired Dachshund who was meant to be a gift for my dad, but she's completely stolen my heart. I've put a lot of time into her training through puppy classes, so I understand positive reinforcement really well and know firsthand just how wonderfully stubborn (and lovable) Dachshunds can be. I've also had the pleasure of caring for larger dogs, so I'm comfortable with different breeds and personalities.

I'm happy to help with pets who need extra care too - I've given medications including pills, injections, and eye drops, always following the vet's guidance closely. By day, I work for the NHS managing health improvement programmes, which has taught me to be caring and attentive to detail.

Before any sit, I really value having a good conversation to understand your pet's unique personality, routine, and needs. That way, I can make sure they feel loved and comfortable while you're away. I'll treat your home with care and respect, keeping everything tidy and welcoming for your return.

Since I work from home, your pet will have plenty of company - I can make sure they're never alone for more than 4 hours, or whatever works best for them. I'm also happy to provide a DBS check and references if that would help you feel more comfortable. I prefer longer sits to balance out the costs/time of travel.

PS: I am not taking my dog with me, if I do house or pet sits. She stays with my dad.
