Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced Brighton Pet Sitter
Your pet's wellbeing is my top priority. Love, care, and attention are at the forefront of everything I do. I've lived alongside animals since the day I was born - dogs, cats, rodents, chickens, even snakes and lizards. Safe to say, I'm an animal lover through and through. I have a wide range of pet sitting experience, from short visits to long-term and overnight stays. Having fostered for dog and cat rescues, I'm just as comfortable with nervous or reactive pets as I am with the friendliest of companions. I'm an active person who loves long walks, hikes, beach swims, and runs but I'm just as happy curled up in the garden with a book, keeping your pet company.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
We had and have many animals and at one point 5 dogs (4of which were spaniels!), 5 rescue cats and chickens. We have also had reptiles. Connie has sat for us on various occasions with stays up to 14 days and the animals always seem quiet and sulky after she has gone. They really miss her and if they had voices, I am sure they'd be wanting me to book more breaks away, so Connie can come back! As our family have gotten older, their needs become more complicated and Connie is adept at giving any medicines and routines that they need. I have come back to them having had a nail cut and bath.... Which has been wonderful Calm, polite, respectful and obsessed with any creature, I wouldn't hesitate in recommending her to sit your fur baby or pet. Just be prepared for them to possibly love her more than you!
Connie has looked after my dog a plethora of times over the past few years. She is an incredibly loving and patient person with animals being her true passion in life. She always puts my dogs needs first and has demonstrated that she is incredibly trustworthy and dependable. In short, there’s no one else that I’d possibly want looking after my pet than Connie, she’s one of a kind.

Schedule
I am currently in between roles, therefore right now, I have full flexibility during the week and at weekends, with no fixed commitments. My partner Ryan and I spend a lot of time outdoors, at local parks or the beach, with plenty of walks, fresh air, and exercise built naturally into our routine. Evenings are more relaxed, settling in front of the TV or spending time in the garden, so your pet would get a good balance of activity and calm, quiet company throughout the day.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Whether in my own home or the pet owner's, my approach is the same: to stick to your pet's existing routine - keeping to established feeding times, walk schedules, medication, and bedtime routines as instructed - to avoid disruption. At my home, I can offer a safe, secure space with a fully fenced garden, ideal for supervised outdoor time/play. I'm an advocate of safe crate training, therefore if a crate is provided, I'll maintain the same routine your pet is already used to at home. Throughout any sit, I'm happy to send regular updates and photos so you can check in and have peace of mind.
