I'm a student at Nottingham University, studying Animal Science, and I'm taking a year out in industry to work in a small zoo. The internship is unpaid so I am looking for work that can fit into my schedule and can help fund my day to day living costs. I love animals, and have had many pets of my own over the years, many with very specific requirements, so am happy and capable to take on pets with particular needs, or that require care that is particularly labour intensive. I have had experience with a wide range of animals, I've grown up with a dog, and also ducks, chickens, mice, guinea pigs, rabbits, and budgies. I also have experience looking after other people's cats and fish.
My interest in animals over the years has led me to seek work experience in vet practices and other animal related settings such as a wildlife rescue centre, a sheep farm in lambing season, a dog kennels, and a donkey sanctuary, and has also led me to choosing my course, and the zoo internship- so I'm very passionate about animals and would love to look after yours. I'm currently a lodger so sadly cannot offer services in my own home, but can offer home visits and dog walking.

Lauren was a fantastic sitter for my old cat! And so helpful when there were unexpected accidents. She sent regular updates so I knew the cat was happy and safe, which was great for my peace of mind. Would definitely recommend Lauren to anyone!
