Animal-loving student
Pet care experience
I have completed a college degree in Animal Management and I am currently studying Animal Behaviour and Conservation in university. Therefore, I have a deep knowledge and understanding of animal behaviour and welfare. I love animals of all shapes and sizes, I enjoy working with them, and hope to turn my love of animals into a life-long career. I have lots of experience with a variety of animals, from amphibians, reptiles and invertebrates to more common pets like fish, cats and dogs. I got my first pet hamster at age 8 and since then I’ve always had guinea pigs, hamsters or rats. I always exercised and provided enrichment for them daily. If you have any rodents I am able to care for them as well as dogs or cats, and take them out of the cage (if you’re comfortable with this) to provide them with enrichment. I also currently have a pet Giant African Land Snail and previously I have owned Praying Mantises and Guppy fish. Because of this, I am comfortable with caring for any exotic pets or fish that you have. I also have a pet cat. I play with and exercise her daily. I also groom her and give her light trimmings to maintain her fur. Finally, I have lots experience with dogs as I have been around them most of my life from a very young age. Although we touched on all species, dogs and cats were the main focus of my college course in terms of learning how to read their behaviour, nutrition and basic veterinary skills (such as CPR and health checks). Your animal will be well cared for and I will always enjoy caring for them. Thank you :)

Reviews

Dex was great with our anxious dog Mitchie, who usually needs time to warm up to people. We got frequent and honest updates about how Mitchie is doing. They went on regular walks and I'm convinced Mitchie was happy staying with Dex. I would definitely recommend Dex if you're looking for someone who is not only trustworthy, but also understands how to approach nervous dogs and will be patient with them.

Dex is fantastic with my Scottish terrier Beatrice. She takes great care of my dog and my home. I would 100% recommend Dex to anyone

Dex was amazing! Will definitely rebook. Dex was very accommodating and patient to our shy cat, very helpful throughout our time away. Always kept us up to date and sent pictures. Couldn’t have asked for more.

We left our energetic dog with Dex for 2 weeks of housesitting. Dex was great with her, they followed our care instructions, kept us up to date with pictures, and updates to let us know everything was OK, and took great care of our home while we were away. We were able to holiday in the knowledge that our dog was in great hands. We returned to a happy dog and wouldn't hesitate to book with Dex again. Thank you.

I will treat your home well and leave it exactly how I find it. I’ll be sure to follow your instructions and do my best to stick to your usual routine so your pets can feel comfortable and safe.
Information Dex C. would like to know about your pet
Let me know what your dog’s general behaviour and personality is like. Are they excitable, laidback, anxious, outgoing? If your dog has any behavioural issues, I’ll need to know this too, so I can know what to expect and how I should interact with them.
A typical day
My day with your pets is controlled by them and what they are in the mood to do! I’m happy to play with them, cuddle them, give them their space, whatever they need at that time is what I’ll provide!

Availability
I’m currently in university 3 days a week. If your pets can be left alone for a few hours, I can work around them. I’m free most weekends and am happy to provide 24/7 care then!
