I'm 53 and live in Central Hove. I have a wealth of experience looking after both my own dogs and cats and other people's. I grew up in the countryside and I've loved animals since I was a child and find it easy to understand them and adapt to their individual personalities. I've had a variety of pets alongside dogs and cats including rabbits, guinea pigs, tortoises, birds and fish. I currently work as a support worker (with humans) and I also work as a specialist mentor for autistic students, but am looking to expand into a more animal based role! I have two cats, a girl called Marceline aged 9, and a kitten called Peter. I also have an axolotl, who was a rescue, called Axy. I'm DBS checked. I'm happy to do short, practical visits, to feed and check on your pets and let them out or change food bowls and litter trays as needed. I'm also available for dog walking and longer visits to play with your pet or just provide some company within your own home if they are lonely. Happy also to water plants and care for other pets you may have alongside cats and dogs.
