Hello, my name is Caroline, I have been a professional pet sitter for 5 years now. Most of my pet sitters are referred to me from my clients, which is so lovely, I always receive referrals from my website, Google search and finally, Rover. I am Canine First Aid trained, this also includes Felines, CDP accredited. Please see my photos to view my certificate. I always carry a fully stocked first aid kit, harnesses, extra leads, cones and muzzles if needed to keep the dog, and myself safe in an emergency first aid situation. Please note, if your booking is confirmed on Rover, you will be consenting to myself carrying out first aid on your pet, if the occasion ever arose. (I haven't had to yet, and I hope not to in the future!). This is just so I have permission from owners to do so. Please do let me know if you do not consent when enquiring. Please also note that I may add photos to my Rover profile of your pets, please do let me know if you do NOT consent to this. I am DBS checked (hold a Police certificate). I also have Pet Sitters Insurance for your peace of mind, as well as mine 😊. Alongside pet sitting, my insurance also covers the below: Dog Walking (For walking up to six dogs) Dog and Cat Grooming Dog Training Pet Boarding Pet Microchipping Pet Minding Pet Taxi Pet Transportation My Husband, Edward sometimes comes with me on my pet sits. I have lovely testimonials from my clients for myself and Edward. He loves animals, especially cats, just as much as me! He also loves the countryside and walking. I will advise at time of inquiry if he will be accompanying me. Please let me know if you would rather it just be me, or your pet is not too fond of men. He is insured with my insurance company. Please look at my photos to see Edward enjoying his best life with our clients pooches and cats! I know the worry, guilt and the 'not knowing who to trust' when it comes to needing somebody to look after your dear pets when you go away from home. Rest assured, your pets would be in capable hands with me. I like to do a meet (where possible), so I know the ins and outs of your pets needs. I have completed work experience at my local veterinary surgery in Crowborough which was my first exposure to the care of animals. When I lived in Australia, I volunteered at a local dog refuge called Shenton Park. Now, I volunteer at last Chance Animal Rescue. Walking the dogs morning and afternoon which is so fulfilling! I also support the Guide Dogs Association, Cats Protection, Hillside Animal Rescue in Norfolk, and the Donkey Sanctuary. All charities close to my heart. I am very trusting, and will take your pets needs to the forefront of my mind. I have been around pets from dogs to hamsters to spiders. Nothing deters me when it comes to the animal world. House/Pet Sitting- I would love the opportunity to house sit for your beloved pet. Whether that be an attention loving dog, to a sleepy hamster, or a majestic reptile. I am a lover of all pets, and would be available to pet sit for one night, to two weeks. I have looked after many dogs who need extra attention, are reactive or nervous. I provide constant care, this means I do not leave your pets for hours alone whilst going out and walking other dogs. I am solely looking after your pets in the comfort of their home. Unlike a lot of pet sitting businesses, my nightly rate is per 24 hours and includes walks. You may find when you're inquiring with companies, that their over night rate is from 6pm till 8am then next day, and then an hourly rate for anytime before or after these times. My rate is for the full 24 hours. Drop-Ins - I can do drop in the morning before or around 8am in the Crowborough/surrounding areas, and after 5:30pm, all week. Dog Walking- I have owned dogs for the past 15 years of my life. I'm used to walking twice a day, for up to an hour at a time. Living in Australia for 5 years, my beautiful puppy out there loved beach walks and the sea, so I'm used to all weathers and terrains to give your pup the best walkies. I love photography, (being a hobby of mine), I am more than happy to try take some happy shots of your pets on walks, around the house, or catch them mid-yawn!
