Pet care experience
Calm, mindful and loving care
I have 10+ years experience working in animal care. I have been away from Rover for a while and now I’m starting again with my partner! James and I have been travelling and working with Trusted Housesitters since March 2026. Here are our recent Trusted Housesitter reviews: - Sue home/pet sitting reference: “Issy has looked after our dog in our house and we all love her. She is one of the kindest, gentlest, most caring and loving people have known. Her passion for animals is clear.” - Phil Evesham 06 - 14 March 2026 “James and Issy were great sitters. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough.” - Lydia Newquay 18 Mar - 05 Apr 2026 “Issy and James looked after Rosa and our home in Newquay for just over two weeks. We had regular updates and arrived back to a happy hound and very clean and tidy house. Welcome back anytime and l'd highly recommend them to all.“ - Karen Ivybridge 06 - 17 April 2026 “James and Izzy are the most fantastic couple. They came on the day of our departure to have a walk with our girls so we could show them favourite walks and the area. Any nerves I had around Rosie our more reactive rescue taking to James and Izzy very quickly disappeared as they are the most gentle and understanding couple and gave Rosie time to settle and obviously get to love them both as the pictures they sent to us proved. Our home was immaculate when we returned and the girls both looked so well and cared for in our absence. We hope they stay on TH so we can have them look after the girls again as it meant so much to relax on holiday knowing they were being so well looked after.” Animals are our passion and we strive to meet the needs of each individual. I (Issy) have theoretical and practical training and experience in all aspects of animal care, and am currently interested in mindful animal communication. - We have been travelling all around the UK using Trusted Housesitters so have experience in varied pet and house sitting situations.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Isobel was great! The communication between us was easy and clear, kept my place clean. Came back to a happy pup! Will definitely book her again.
We have known Issy for some four years while she has been studying locally for her degree in Conservation. She has come to visit on numerous occasions to meet and play with our four dogs and has been for walks with them. She has a calm and re-assuring manner with dogs, and shows great patience and kindness, never losing her cool. She has also voluntarily come to help with our horses, come rain or shine ! She is not afraid of hard work and has always done an excellent job when cleaning out the stables or yard. Issy clearly loves animals of any description and I would thoroughly recommend her services.
Issy is the most animal-devoted person I have ever met, and every animal she comes into contact with seems to love her immediately! She has spent many years learning different techniques for caring for animals, so can give your dog specialised care depending on its needs and personality. I cannot recommend her highly enough!
