Loving and Empathetic Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Harriet and I currently live in Leigh. Aside from having a wealth of practical experience providing canine care, I am also fully qualified in animal care with both a Level 3 BTEC in Animal Care as well as a Foundation Degree in Animal Science and Behaviour. I have spent 8 years of my life working with and caring for dogs (A short time at the RSPCA and the main duration in boarding kennels and doggy daycare). I am empathetic and understanding to all animals, and I absolutely love spending time with them which is a bonus!! I have lots of experience with dogs of all breeds and sizes, and I am confident that I can fulfill their needs, this includes feeding and administering medication if necessary. I also have a wide range of knowledge regarding dog behaviour. As well as working in a kennels and daycare - I have also spent time working on a small zoo, meaning I have the experience and neccesary skills to care for all creatures great and small! This includes birds, fish, rodents, reptiles, amphibians, and cats. (I have also owned reptiles in the past, mainly lizards). At home I have my own little Shih Tzu Elsie, as well as my rescue boy Winter. I am able to care for your animals at your own home as well as providing them with a nice long or short walk! Whatever suits you. Look forward to hearing from you soon. References and proof of animal care qualification can be provided if you wish.

Harriet is basically the dog whisperer! Professional, wonderful rapport with dogs and obviously a lot of knowledge and experience. Highly recommended

Harriet is an extremely caring young lady, who I have found to be most reliable and trustworthy. Harriet is fiercely passionate about animal welfare, and animals in general. She has a particular passion and fondness for dogs, which I feel was sensed immediately by my shih tzu's, Teddy and Nelly on their initial meeting. Harriet has a wide depth of knowledge regarding animal welfare which is more than apparent when handling and taking care of my dogs needs. Harriet has gained an Animal Care level 3 BTEC DDD*, which is a real achievement and has always made me feel reassured on leaving Teddy and Nelly in her care when business takes me away for periods of time. Harriet has also been a much appreciated support to myself after Teddy had surgery, very accommodating and flexible through a worrying time, also an excellent help with post op care. I would not hesitate to recommend Harriet to any one looking for that special someone who would have your pets best interest at heart.
