Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving pet sitter with flexible hours
Since my early years, the family house has always been filled with small animals - cats, hamsters, rabbits and guinea pigs. From this I’ve built a very good understanding of how to care for small animals like how to administer medication, feed, clean and groom them. Over my teenage years, whilst completing my gold Duke of Edinburgh, I volunteered for a year at an animal sanctuary where we cared and housed the most random of animals from hedgehogs to seagulls. But the most common animal we had were cats and kittens. Often we had around 20 cats at one time so I had to make sure to divide my time well that each animal had a good amount of human contact, cuddles, play time and grooming. It was important to establish bonds with the cats and kittens coming in as many were rescues so some didn’t have the best experience with human interaction. It was also important to build this connection so that they were able to go to homes in the future.

Safety, trust & environment
Before accepting any job, It is my priority to first establish a basic relationship with the owner and pet in a visit before the intended date. This allows me to meet the pet and learn their schedule/ behaviour and where everything needed is and make sure you are happy and comfortable with me too!
Ratings and reviews
Meg is attentive, loving, nurturing, playful and responsible. Having grown up with pets in family homes all of her life and a current cat owner herself, she is confident and sensitive to animals' needs providing them direct play, care, attention and space appropriately. Meg is used to handling different animals-cats, dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, rabbits and as such is confident and capable. Meg is reliable and professional and has an excellent customer service background having worked in hospitality for many years managing customer complaints, service and improving outcomes. Meg is able to effectively work with others and alone and can be relied upon to do as requested in a timely and courteous manner. I have no concerns about her capability to pet sit.

Schedule
