Highlights
Pet care experience
Easy going, veterinary student
I’m a third year vet student at the RVC in London, I’ve owned dogs my whole life with varying breeds including German Shepards, Cocker Spaniels, Staffies and Frenchies. I have experience with rescue and care dogs due to my previous cocker being a rescue. I also have experience surrounding small animals including rabbits and guinea pigs too :)
Cat care experience
Francesca also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
I could not recommend Francesca enough, she is amazing! She was willing to take our 2 Rottis, (one of which is only 6 months old), at short notice. They had never been left with strangers before, so we were extremely nervous. She was willing to cater for our boys individual needs & is extremely knowledgeable. Our boys came back very happy & very tired. I was surprised she would be willing to have them again, as they can be hard work, but she would! & I would leave them with her , without a moments hesitation. She was great!! Can't thank her enough.

Francesca was fantastic with Pepper! 🐶 Pepper came home super happy and relaxed, and it was clear she had been very well looked after. Francesca kept us updated throughout the day with lots of lovely photos, which gave us real peace of mind, and she took great care to make sure Pepper was comfortable and happy. She was friendly, reliable, and clearly loves dogs. We felt completely at ease leaving Pepper with her and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to others. We’ll definitely be booking with Francesca again soon. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our little girl!
Francesca is great with Fred, reliable and Fred always comes back ready for a long nap after his walks with her.

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When I’m taking care of pets in someone else’s home, I focus on keeping things safe, relaxed, and comfortable for them. I stick to the routines the owner sets, make sure they have fresh water, food, and any exercise they’re used to. I take my time to build trust so pets feel happy and secure around me. I also make sure the space stays tidy and treat their home with respect, leaving everything as it was.
Pets
A typical day
I love to stimulate dogs energy demands and getting their full release of energy and exercise! I tend to incorporate training (if appropriate) into playtime so owners have less stress!
- Cats0 to 7 kg7 to 18 kg18 to 45 kgover 45 kgTakes only 1 client at a timeFrancesca can host up to 2 pets per night
- I don’t have many preferences if any all I ask is for disclosure if your pet has bitten before (I have experience with reactive dogs/rescues), if you require extra assistance or there is extra information surrounding your pet I am more than happy to work with these, such as diets, deafness/blindness etc :)
