I currently work Monday to Thursday in Salford, usually on either 8am to 4pm or 9am to 5pm shifts. Outside of these hours, I am very flexible and available for pet care, including evenings and weekends. I live with my long term partner who works from home, so he is home during the day, everyday. This means pets are rarely left alone and are cared for in a calm, consistent home environment. My partner is very comfortable around animals and we both have experience caring for pets both personally and through fostering. However, I remain the primary sitter and your main point of contact, and I personally handle all bookings, communication, and care. For peace of mind, we are both happy to meet you and your pet beforehand so you can feel completely comfortable with us and the home environment. If you prefer that I am the sole person interacting with your pet, that can also be arranged, just let me know what you’re most comfortable with. I’m always happy to answer any questions before a booking to make sure you feel confident and relaxed leaving your pet in my care :)

Safety, trust & environment
I provide a calm, safe, and comfortable home environment where pets are treated as part of the family. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel secure and settled, and I keep a consistent routine with feeding, toilet breaks, exercise, and plenty of rest. I also make sure my home is pet safe and suitable for the animals I am caring for. I have experience fostering animals, so I’m used to caring for a range of temperaments. If I do have foster pets in the home, they are always kept completely separate. I don’t accept overnight boarding during these times, so you can be assured your pet will only stay with me when I can give them my full attention in a calm, safe environment.

Information Annamay C. would like to know about your pet
Before a booking, I like to get a good understanding of your pet so I can keep things as close to their normal routine as possible. It’s really helpful to know their feeding schedule, daily routine, personality, and any habits or preferences they have. Please also let me know about their temperament (for example if they’re nervous, reactive, or very energetic), how they are around people and other animals, and any medical needs or medications. The more you can share, the better I can make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and settled while they’re with me.
A typical day
A typical day with me is pretty relaxed and shaped around each pet’s usual routine so they feel comfortable. We’ll start the day with feeding, toilet breaks, and a bit of attention so they can settle in and feel at home. During the day, dogs will usually get a mix of walks and playtime depending on their energy levels. I always make sure they’re safe and happy, and I avoid anything too busy or overwhelming if they’re a bit nervous. I’ll make sure they’ve got a cosy space to relax, a bit of company, and some toys or enrichment if they’re interested. I like to keep things calm but still engaging so they don’t get bored. In the evening, it’s usually a final walk (if needed), dinner, and then winding down so they can settle comfortably for the night. My main goal is just to keep things as close to their normal routine as possible so they feel safe and settled while you’re away.

Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Annamay. I moved to Manchester from Ireland about 5 years ago. Growing up, my grandparents rescued greyhounds and would find them loving new homes. I learned so much from them about caring for animals. Up until I left Ireland I would help them with walking, feeding, training, and grooming all the dogs in their care while also looking after my own pets. Growing up I had four dogs. Sadly my Boxer (Alli), my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel (Bella) and my Cocker Spaniel (Pele) have all since passed away from old age. My family dog, Lola (Poodle) still lives back in Ireland with my younger siblings as I moved to Manchester to complete my Postgrad in Primary Teaching. My Aunt also runs a cat shelter that I volunteered at during summers growing up and I rescued two older stray black cats from the shelter, that have now also sadly passed from old age. Currently, I foster animals with Blue Cross because I just love being around animals! I would love to use my experience and skills to help dog and cat owners (and other animals!) have some extra help or more time to themselves without worrying about their pet!

Reviews
Fantastic experience with Annamay and her partner who took great care of my cat, Pippa. I was kept updated with messages and photos, and felt completely at ease while I was away. Pippa was happy and well cared for - highly recommend and will rebook.
Puff had such a wonderful stay with Annamay and her partner! From the moment we met them, it was obvious how genuinely they love animals. They are incredibly nice, friendly, and paid attention to every single detail of Puff’s daily routine to make sure he felt right at home. I loved getting daily updates and photos, I could tell he felt completely safe and comfortable just by looking at his hilarious sleeping positions! 🩷They also returned everything so clean and tidy. I cannot recommend them highly enough, we will definitely be booking with them again! 🥰
I had a fantastic experience with Annamay and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. My dog Fifi stayed overnight and was clearly so well cared for. Annamay kept me updated throughout with plenty of photos and videos, which really put my mind at ease. It was lovely to see Fifi so happy, playful, and relaxed in her care. Communication was perfect from start to finish, and it’s obvious that Annamay genuinely loves and understands dogs.
I’ve trusted Annamay to look after my two dogs (a Chihuahua and a Jack Russell Terrier), and she’s been amazing with them. They have quite different personalities and energy levels, but she handled both of them so well and made sure they were comfortable and happy. She’s really calm, attentive, and clearly loves animals. I always felt completely at ease knowing they were in her care, and I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and trustworthy to look after their pets.
