Pet care experience
I was born into a house with two cats, two dogs and a bird, and have had pets ever since. I am a keen horserider and used to volunteer at stables so am experienced with mucking out and grooming tasks. My cousin is a rescuer and wildlife rehabilitator for the RSPCA and I have spent a significant amount of time looking after the reptiles, amphibians, other exotic pets and wildlife that she takes into her home and cares for. I've also volunteered in my local animal shelter for the past 10 years so have been around pets of all shapes, sizes and ages, from week old hairless kittens to 18 year old staffies still looking for their forever homes. As my profession is animal-orientated I spend a lot of time around them and researching them, from monitoring wild bird populations and rehabilitating endangered species to working as a farm hand on a cattle station. I also had stints as a professional dog walker throughout university to help me pay the bills (and for the joy of it).
Reviews
Hannah was brilliant with my 2 dogs Tizer & Charlie. From the very first meeting they got on great, my GSD can be nervous with people, but that wasn't the case at all. Would 100% recommend Hannah.
Hannah was absolutely brilliant in looking after my cat and house. She sent me little messages reporting on the development of her relationship with my rather temperamental cat which was great. He seemed like he had been happy and well taken care of while I was away. The house was left in the really good state when I returned and she was kind enough to give me a lift to the station when I left for my trip! I would highly recommend Hannah as a pet and house sitter for anyone.
Hannah is wonderful! There was excellent communication throughout the pet sit and if any issues or questions came up she reached out immediately to keep me updated and ask for advice. I really appreciated this prompt and clear communication for peace of mind while away. Hannah is also very patient and kind with animals. She did a pet sit for five of my dogs and was able to gain all of their trust after a few days. Which is really saying a lot as they can be unsure of new people. When I came home the house was tidy and well looked after. I highly recommend Hannah and would love to have her back again and again. She really is the best!

Safety, trust & environment
I love housesitting because it involves three things I enjoy more than anything - meeting new people, making new furry friends and visiting new places. I love living as a local wherever I go as I've found it gives me a much richer understanding and knowledge about the places I visit. Having been a housesitter for the past seven years, I've loved every single housesit I've done and am always looking forward to the next house and pets I get to look after. I’ve loved the pets that I've had throughout my life so much and know what it's like to leave them with other people while I'm away, and how important it is that they're in good hands. I treat the pets I look after exactly how I'd want mine to be treated while I'm away - like the princes and princesses that they are! I am a responsible, caring and honest person and always ensure homeowners return to happy pets and a spotless home.

Availability
I work from home so I’m available throughout the day for any pet care tasks (walking, feeding, grooming, cuddling, playing, etc). I’m a runner and hiker and I love being able to take the dogs I care for with me (and the occasional cat if they’re so way inclined)!
