Highlights
Pet care experience
Kind animal loving person with years of experience
I'm Becki and I adore all animals. I dont believe there is anything such as a bad animal, just one that needs more support and understanding. I have extensive, hands on experience with a wide range of dogs and cats, including anxious, reactive, elderly, and medically complex pets. I previously cared for my own dog, who required significant medical support, including administering subcutaneous fluid injections. This experience has made me calm, confident, patient, and highly attentive to animals with additional care needs. I am very experienced with separation anxiety, senior pets, and animals who need extra reassurance and understanding. Over the past six to seven years, I’ve intentionally studied and applied cat and dog body language, which allows me to recognise signs of stress, discomfort, and happiness and adjust my approach to help animals feel safe and secure with me. I’ve had dogs all my life and have been walking and caring for them since I was very young. I have cared for many different breeds, including Beagles, Terriers, Labradors, and Greyhounds. I have also owned and fostered several cats, including caring for cats with young kittens. I genuinely love connecting with animals and tend to make friends with them wherever I go. I am kind, clear, patient, and consistent in my approach, and I always prioritise building trust with an animal before providing care wherever possible. I’ve looked after many cats and dogs over the years, each with their own unique personalities and needs, and I adapt easily to provide them with the best possible care.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced garden at my house. I tend to not let dogs off lead until I'm confident a good relationship has been established. I work off the assumption of being careful but getting the info I need for each dog from their owners as they will know their dog best. With cats and dogs I really go at their pace. If they are shy I am patient and gentle. I like to work out with they like, be that games, a good stroke in the right spot, or just being left alone physically, but knowing they have company.
Ratings and reviews
Becki did a fantastic job taking care of our cat while we were away. Communication was great. Becki gave us daily updates with pictures and videos which gave us the reassurance we needed to not worry about her and enjoy our holidays. Highly recommended.
Becki was amazing with our dog Pickle and clearly put a lot of thought into looking after her. We found Becki very trustworthy and will definitely be asking her to dogsit Pickle in the future!
Becki was amazing, so easy to work with and responsive and she immediately bonded with our pet. She sent us nice photos regularly and we came home to a happy pet. Thank you so much!
Becki was an absolute saviour after our original cat sitter cancelled the day before a 10 day holiday! We received continuous updates and videos/photos. Percy had definitely made a new friend! Thank you again Becki, will be sure to book you in next time :)
Becki looked after my cats with drop-in visits for five days while I was away and I couldn’t be happier. She’s a genuinely lovely person, so caring and clearly an animal lover. She was incredibly patient with my cats, which meant even my shy, anxious one felt comfortable around her and was happy to eat in her presence. I would absolutely use Becki again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to other pet parents.🥰
Becki took such great care of Effy, it was immediately obvious she loves dogs and they seemed to bond very quickly. We had great updates throughout the day, would not hessitate to book again!

I work from home tuesday to thursday so I'm flexible. And don't work on Fridays. I'm often free on the weekends. Most weekends i will have at least one cat to be popping in on. I have a two bed flat that I share with my husband with carpet runners for dogs on the hardwood floors. And I have several dog beds.
- Cats0 to 7 kg7 to 18 kg18 to 45 kgBecki can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
- I like to know about a dog/cats temperament, how they are with other animals. If they are friendly with people or more shy. The more I know the better I can look after your animals when they are away from you. :) Also anything the are especially worried about or things to look out for, additionally things they love! Im very confident with anxious animals as I know how to give them space and time to get comfortable with a new person
