Pawsitively the Best Stand-In 😻🐶

I’ve shared my life with cats and dogs for as long as I can remember. I live with my partner and our two rescue cats, Felix and Pixie, who we adopted from the RSPCA. I understand that every pet is different. Some want endless fuss and playtime, while others prefer their routine and a bit of space. My aim is always to keep your pet happy, comfortable and relaxed in their own environment while you’re away.

Jo has been brilliant with my two boys. Every day she took new toys round to give them some stimulation and play time, she brushed them and gave them the attention they like. When we got home she had left them a little goodie bags each, with a toy, a treat, some photos and a little figurine. It was very sweet. She left great notes every check in and uploaded a good selection of photos. I really felt like my boys were in good hands and that gave me a lot of reassurance that they were being well looked after.

We were absolutely delighted with the drop-in visit by Jo. She has experience looking after cats and was aware of Felix’s needs who is on thyroid medication, and even suggested and brought over a couple of packs of Lick-e-liks to help Felix take the medication. Communication was fantastic, we received updates, photos, and videos of her visit.

Joanne was amazing at taking care of our cat. She always made sure that our cat had enough food, a clean environment, and engaging toys. We appreciated that Joanne always interacted with Fifi and sent us pictures and videos of how Fifi was doing. She also sorted out some small issues in the house, so we knew both the cat and the house were in trusted hands.
