Highly Experienced Pet Sitter
I am a reliable and caring pet sitter with extensive experience looking after pets for family and friends. I genuinely love animals and take pride in providing attentive, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s needs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I always ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after while their owners are away.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Mari is absolutely great! I received lots of photo updates throughout, which really put my mind at ease. It was clear my dog was happy and well cared for the whole time. I’d definitely book again!
Mari has a natural affinity with animals and they just love her! This is probably because of her calm and caring way with them. Mari is also very conscientious, she takes any caring duty seriously, making sure she knows exactly what is needed to ensure that the pet she is looking after is safe and happy. I trust her completely.

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I am self-employed and spend a lot of time at home, so I’m able to give a pet plenty of attention, companionship, and regular care throughout the day. I can easily manage feeding, playtime, grooming, and making sure they feel comfortable and settled. I also love going for walks, so daily exercise and outdoor time would be an enjoyable part of my routine for both me and the pet.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets by providing a safe, calm, and loving environment where their individual needs always come first. In my home, I make sure they have a clean, comfortable space, regular feeding times, fresh water, exercise, play, and plenty of attention. I follow the owner’s routines as closely as possible so pets feel secure and settled. In a pet owner’s home, I respect their space while maintaining the pet’s normal schedule, including walks, feeding, medication if required, cleaning up after them, and keeping them company. I pay close attention to behaviour, mood, and wellbeing, and I always communicate with owners through updates, photos, and messages so they feel reassured while they are away.
A typical day
The fun activities I do with pets will always be tailored to their age, personality, energy level, and the owner’s preferences. For dogs, this could include walks, playtime with toys, games like fetch, basic training practice, scent games, or enrichment activities that keep them mentally stimulated. For cats, I can provide interactive play with teaser toys, puzzle feeders, climbing and exploring activities, or calm companionship on their terms. For smaller pets, I would focus on gentle handling where appropriate, safe enrichment, and keeping their environment interesting and comfortable. My aim is always to make sure each pet feels happy, engaged, and cared for while matching the routine and guidance provided by the owner.
