Highlights
Pet care experience
Future crazy old animal lady :)
Anyone who knows me would vouch for my passion for all animals. My family has had cats since I was born and we got our first dog nearly 15 years ago who was my absolute world. Unfortunately we lost her at the end of 2024, but we cherish the memories dearly. As soon as I was able to, I have independently walked / trained / cared for my pets and take any opportunity to care for any other animals! My neighbours have trusted me to look after their pets whilst on holiday and I have a regular pet sit (two young dogs and a cat in their own home) where I quickly managed to befriend a nervous little cat who is very friendly with me, which I think was a shock to the owners! I have another regular dog, where I stay at their home whilst they are on holiday as well as a regular Tuesday and Thursday booking with different dogs. I also have experience looking after high energy puppies and larger dogs like border collies and labradors. I volunteer at my local wildlife rescue charity, where I health check and clean out anything from hedgehogs to pigeons! My love for animals extends into my career aspirations, as I want to go into the environment and sustainability sector. I will always go above and beyond to make sure animals feel safe and comfortable and will often put their needs above my own.

Ratings and reviews
Holly was amazing, she was so accommodating of Olive’s training and was spot on in terms of her approach. They were best of friends by the end of the day and I would happily recommend Holly to anyone.
Holly was absolutely wonderful with our dogs, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From our very first interaction, she made me feel completely confident and at ease leaving our dogs in her care. She kindly met with us twice beforehand, which meant a lot, especially since we have a nervous lab. Within minutes, it was clear she was calm, patient, and a perfect fit for him. While we were away, Holly kept us updated with photos and messages at just the right balance, which we really appreciated. It was obvious how happy and comfortable our dogs were with her. She took them on walks and truly took the time to get to know their personalities over the three days she stayed. We came home to three very happy dogs—who definitely missed Holly for days afterward! We would absolutely and enthusiastically recommend Holly to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and fantastic dog sitter. 🐾
Thank you, Holly, for taking care of Spring. You were absolutely amazing and lovely more than just a “dog sitter” , it was like having a friend looking after Spring. Thanks for being you. Hope to see you soon 🤗x
Holly gave Mia a lovely day out, lots of energy used and have a happy sleepy dog by the end of it! Thank you Holly will gladly book with you again :)
Holly has a natural affinity towards animals to the point where she almost prefers them to humans. She's been around animals her whole life and is without a doubt the most kind and compassionate person that I know. There is no one better to take care of your animal whilst you're away.
Holly is a passionate "pet person" during her 21 years she has always had cats and now a dog as a family pet and has loved and looked after them all equally well. Her dog likes to spend most of her time with her, especially when Holly is tucking her into bed every night! Holly also regularly expresses her love for animals by volunteering for Hart Wildlife Rescue on a weekly basis. Assisting the professionals by caring for all the sick animals. Overall I would highly recommend Holly for this as she truly adores all animals. She has her own car, and is mobile and willing!
