I am studying a masters course in Speech and Language therapy at The University of Lincoln. I have study-from-home days on Mondays and Tuesdays and finish classes at 4pm Wednesday-Friday so I will have plenty of time to provide your pet with all of their needs. My partner who lives with me is a fellow dog lover and works from home in the evenings so between us both your pet will never be lonely or without their needs fully attended to at all times. It would be an absolute pleasure for us to take care of your beloved companion!

Pet care from a true animal lover!

Pet care experience

I've always been an animal lover and taken care of my family dog Sam, our adorable cocker spaniel who very sadly passed away last year aged 15. I cherished the time I spent time with him, from warm cuddles on the sofa to strethcing our legs outside for long walks where he never got tired of fetching his ball! I have also throughly enjoyed pet-sitting multiple friends' dogs and cats for periods of a few days at a time over the past few years. I assure you that I will give your furry companion as much affection and undivided attention as if they were my own pet! Our animals deserve the very best.

Christy really helped me out by having my cocker spaniel for the day whilst I was visiting Lincoln for house viewings, she even had her longer than planned so I could attend a last minute viewing which was massively appreciated! Christy was super responsive and kept me up to date throughout the day with photos (which was great as I’m an anxious dog mum!), and my pup seemed super happy when I came to collect her. Will definitely be using Christy again once settled in Lincoln, and would recommend without a doubt! Thanks so much for looking after Tui so well 🐶

My dog Luna's stay with Christy didn't go well unfortunately. We met Christy a few months ago for an initial visit, which went ok. On the day of the booking I was informed Christy wouldn't be there for the drop off so I had to leave Luna with Christy's partner. It was Luna's first stay away from home and she became distressed. I understand this needed to be communicated but the way in which was done so wasn't good. I was away and unable to drive back home to get Luna until the morning, nor did I have anyone else who could collect her, given that it was almost 10 o'clock at night. Christy suggested I get an uber from where I was staying to collect her but by th time i was able to reply Luna had calmed enough to get some sleep and we cut our stay away short to collect her in the morning.

Christy was a fabulous choice and our beloved Bertie was left in capable hands! Highly recommended and we will book again with Christy for sure.

Mabel is a shy dog and they made her feel at home and looked after her well, lots of updates and photos during her stay. Will definitely use Christy again and highly recommend her 😊
