My name is Lotty and I'm an anaesthetic practitioner currently employed by the NHS. I'm available for regular/flexible arrangements of pet sitting/walking! I'm a genuine animal lover and treat every animal I care for as if they were my own family members - I spend time with them and don't just feed and dash!

I do this because I love animals and love spending time walking them, so my rates aren't high for the reason that I have employment already and this is more a hobby!

Prior to doing this, I had a negative experience myself with a previous sitter I'd hired to look after my cats. From that, I decided to dedicate my spare time to making sure nobody has that same negative experience that I did! 

Key Points:

- DBS Checked as part of main career

- Experienced pet owner

- Ability to medicate

- Experience with different temperaments 

- Experience of pet sitting, house sitting and dog walking. 

- Full clean driving license and own transport 

I also have regular dog-walking/pet-sitting clients that can provide references if needed, and personal access to veterinary nursing advice (my partner!). 

I offer home-sitting, dog-walking, pet day care and feed/companion visits - perfect for if you want your pets to remain in their own home.

Access to local parks and beaches. But don't worry! If your pet loves the water I'm happy to bathe and nail clip so they come home smelling and looking fresh!

I have three resident cats which are my babies! Harry, Willow and Darcy. They're very dog-friendly.

Harry was originally quite spicy but through learning his social cues we have swiftly become very bonded, so I have plenty of experience with antisocial animals! He is medicated daily which means I have lots of experience medicating animals (even spicy ones) and am happy to do so if required. 

Willow was a rescue who was an incredibly timid old lady when she came to me, refusing to eat and skin and bones. With love, perseverance and genuine care she's now the most social and affectionate cat I've ever owned, and a very healthy girl. 

Darcy is the kitten, and a little rascal still! She loves to play and especially play fetch! She loves dogs and will happily play with them all day.
