Hi there! I'm a third year biology student at the University of Nottingham, with a Level 3 National Extended Diploma in Animal Management from Plumpton College. I'd love to take care of your animals whilst you're away, making sure they are as happy and healthy as they were when you left them. I have always loved animals, growing up near the Downs and frequently taking walks near farms with horses and sheep. I also loved visiting the local children's farm, where I could interact and feed the animals. I feel that animals will love and care for you as long as you treat them well and take the time to understand their needs: they will not hide their true intentions, and will always be honest about what they want. Although I am uncertain about career paths, I like the idea becoming a vet or a vet nurse. Animals can't always tell where it hurts and I want to be able to be their voice for them, and for them to have a long life with their owners. I have volunteered at an animal rescue in South-East England where I have worked with a variety of farm animals, cats, dogs and rabbits. During my time at Plumpton College, I had weekly practice performing animal husbandry for rodents, birds, reptiles and invertebrates. I've also worked as an animal tech for about a year. My previous housesitting/petsitting jobs have involved feeding, walking, flea treatments, providing various forms of enrichment and oral administration of medication. I can walk your pet for as long as you need me to, and if they have an anxious temperament I can comfort them as you need me to. Back home in london, I have two cats: both tabbies, one longhair and one shorthair, which I love cuddling up with. As I am living in student accommodation, I would be taking care of your companion in your own home. Feel free to give me any instructions on what you'd like me to do/not what to do. I am happy to take care of light housesitting tasks such as watering the plants, taking the bins out on the allocated day, keeping the floors and surfaces clean etc. Just be sure to let me know! Thank for taking the time to read my profile. I hope I've left a good enough impression that you may consider me your next petsitter :)
