Trusted Pet Mum You Can Count On
Hi there! 👋 I’m a proud mum of two amazing kids, two mischievous cats, one lovable Labrador … and a slightly grumpy husband who secretly adores them all. 🐾 By day, I work as a dedicated special needs teaching assistant, but in the evenings, early mornings, on weekends, and during school holidays, I’m your go-to pet sitter and dog walker! For the past few years, I’ve been caring for all kinds of furry (and not-so-furry) friends in my spare time—dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters—you name it. Animals are a big part of my life, and I treat every pet I care for like one of my own. Whether you're heading out of town or just need a helping hand, I'm here to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. If you think I can help, I’d love to hear from you—feel free to drop me a message anytime!

Safety, trust & environment
While I only offer pet sitting in your home—my house can be a little lively with kids, cats, and dogs!—you can trust that I’ll treat your pets with the same love and care I give my own. I’m happy to help with feeding, cleaning, cuddles, playtime, and anything else your pet needs to feel safe and comfortable. I’m used to handling all kinds of personalities and routines, and I always take the time to understand what makes each animal feel at ease. Your pet’s wellbeing is my priority, and I’ll make sure they feel loved and cared for while you're away—just like part of my own furry family.

Schedule
I'm a full-time working mum and a dedicated special needs teaching assistant during the week—but caring for animals is a true passion of mine. I'm available for pet sitting and walks during weekends and school holidays, and I also offer daily drop-in visits, as long as I can come by in the early mornings or after work. Whether you need someone for regular check-ins, holiday care, or weekend companionship for your pets, I’ll always do my best to work around your schedule and give your furry friends the love and attention they deserve!
