I work hybrid from home so I have a very flexible schedule since I decide what days to go into the office. I’m usually up at 8am and go for an early run and at midday a quick walk around the park or the riverside to clear my head, in the afternoon it depends whats in store for the day.

Pet care experience

I’ve been around dogs my whole life, so fur, paws, and muddy walks are nothing new to me. For the past two years, I’ve been pet sitting for dogs and cats in my old building, going on long walks, meals, playtime, and all the cuddles they can handle. I’ve recently moved and I’m on the lookout for some new pups and cats to hang out with, spoil a little, and keep happy while you’re away.

I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Barbara. I was quite anxious about leaving my cat Simba, especially as I wasn’t sure how he’d settle with someone new, but Barbara completely put my mind at ease. Her communication was excellent throughout, and she regularly sent photos and updates, which really reassured me that Simba was happy and comfortable. It was clear he was being well cared for and having a great time on his holiday. I’m so grateful for the care and attention she gave him, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful cat sitter. I would definitely have her cat sit for Simba again!

Barbara took care of my dog for over a week and everything went well and smoothly. Great communication in advance, flexibility re timing of pick up and drop off. Definitely recommend!

Barbra is incredibly trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring when it comes to animals. Her love for animals is obvious in the way she interacts with them. Any animal she meets instantly gets her full attention and affection. Barbra takes the health, safety, and overall wellbeing of pets very seriously, and she has repeatedly proven herself as a reliable caregiver while looking after her friends’ pets. I would trust her without hesitation with any animal.

Barbara has been entrusted to look after my cat Figgy multiple times and I could not recommend her more. She truly understands the individual needs of animals and adheres to all instructions provided. Not only is she diligent but she also loves animals which makes me feel like I can leave my pet in safe hands
