Highlights
Pet care experience
Hope's happy pets. Good with nervous pets.WFH, DBS
My skills are currently being put to wonderful use with my new rescue cat, Millie ( cutie in profile pic ). It's a joy to see how my years of experience in reading subtle body language and building trust are helping her blossom from a timid cat into a happy, confident one in such a short time ( 3 months!). I love her so much. It's this patient, positive approach that I bring to every pet I care for which has impressed my clients. My 10+ years of experience are built on professional pet sitting, dedicated volunteer work, and ownership. I've owned everything from German Shepherds to hamsters and have cared for pets of all sizes and ages with a wide variety of health needs. I am confident with puppy and kitten care.

Safety, trust & environment
I will ensure that I keep the house tidy and secure, and your pet well looked after according to your instructions. Good to Know: I'll send photos/vids and updates daily. I can administer oral medication. I charge by time, not by the number of pets in your family! Overnight bookings are for a 24-hour period (e.g., 10am to 10am the following day). My standard overnight service ensures that your pet is cared for, with the flexibility for me to leave the house from time to time to attend to other pet visits and run errands. This is typically just a couple of hours but may take up to 4-5 hours in total on rare occassions if it's a particularly busy period. If your pet requires constant 24/7 supervision and cannot be left alone, please let me know in advance so we can arrange it as a premium service and discuss rates.
Ratings and reviews
Hope took great care of our 2 boys while we were away. She was incredibly reliable, trustworthy and communicated fantastically. She provided amazing updates every time she visited our cats which provided the all the important peace of mind for this incredibly anxious cat parent.
Hope looked after our 3 little fur babies for a weekend, Hope kept us informed with photos, videos updates. We felt totally at ease after we met Hope, our dogs took to her within minutes. Thank you again Hope.
Hope was really great, she accepted the job at short notice & was very friendly & professional. She sent some nice photos & videos & kept me updated. Cat seems very happy
Hope looked after Harley for the day at short notice. She came over to meet us in advance to get to know his routine, Really good communication and plenty of updates and photos / videos throughout the day. Harley seemed to be having a great time and was quite relaxed on my return. Thanks Hope!
The first pet sit with Hope staying in our home was excellent, we couldn’t have asked for more, and so we booked her again with confidence. During the second sit our pets were well looked after, fed and walked, regular dog updates, as well as plants watered, and a kind offer to buy any groceries we needed for our return home.
Hope made us feel super comfortable that our two kittens were being well looked after, while we were away. Hope is very conscientious and we will definitely be booking their services again. Thank you

Schedule
As I work from home, your pet will benefit from consistent company and a calming presence throughout the day, ensuring they get all the attention they deserve. What I Offer Walks (45 mins): One-on-one walks focused entirely on your dogs enjoyment and safety, one clients dogs at a time. For my North Bristol clients, we can explore local favourites like the expansive fields of Stoke Park or St Andrews park. Safety is my priority: off-lead exploring only happens in secure areas with your express permission for dogs with strong recall. If you would like a longer walk, please message me to discuss rates. Home Visits: My visits cover feeding, playtime, litter trays, cuddles and a quick walk for dogs round the block! If you would like a longer walk, let me know so we can add a walk as an extra. Overnight Stays: I'll move in to keep your pet’s routine in their favourite place: home. I also guarantee to leave your home just as tidy as I found it.
