Kate

I am a 28 year old former teacher who runs a non-profit organisation, and am self-employed with significant flexibility as to working hours.

I have a long history of animal ownership, and volunteering with animals. I currently own ex-battery chickens, rescue guinea pigs, and a senior rescue cat. I have previously owned or fostered a kitten, dogs, rabbits, and hamsters. I grew up with dogs from the age of 9 and have spent significant time walking, training, and socialising them. Our current family dog (who lives at my family home rather than with myself) is dog-aggressive, and so I am used to working with dogs with behavioural issues. I also spent 2 years volunteering at the Birmingham Donkey Sanctuary. I therefore have experience with animals large and small, domestic and farm, young and old! I am confident in my ability to care for and work with a variety of animals with different needs and temperaments.

I would be happy to pet sit animals of any shape and size. I can offer feeding, walking, and basic grooming. I am happy to administer basic medication (for example tablet or liquid/syringe) and support with basic training by following your pet rules and expectations. I am excited to meet lots of new animal friends and am very flexible as to your needs (I also drive so location is not a problem).
