Pet care experience
Pet sitter for any kind of animal
Hello, thanks for considering me. I’m a lifelong animal owner having had cats, dogs and everything in between continuously for 25 years or so. As well as loving them at home I have experience working with animals professionally at Cats Protection and Wellgate Farm as well as training to care for all kinds of animals at Writtle College. Dogs, cats, turtles, tortoises, terrapins. I’m happy to look after any pets that need it.

Safety, trust & environment
I’m very experienced around animals so am well aware every animal is different. I will always listen to your instructions on the best way to care for your pets as you will know best. Whether they want tons of play time & affection, or simply need someone to check in each day to keep them fed & watered, I will do everything I can to keep your pets happy, safe and comfortable.
Ratings and reviews
Michael looked after our cat and dog for a week and kept us constantly updated with photos and evaluations of their wellbeing. Despite being quite shy around strangers, they took to him immediately and Michael did a super job in making sure they didn't miss us too much while we were away. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter, especially in mixed pet and temperament households.
I can't recommend Michael highly enough! He went above and beyond, taking extra time out of his day to show real care and attention to our animals. He sent daily reports and pictures to reassure us that everything was well. He will be our go-to girl all of our future needs. Such a lovely kind person. Thank you Michael
Look! Don't even think twice! Michael is your guy! From a very worried owner to a very jealous one 🤣 he was an absolute star, keeping me updated after every single visit, cute pics and videos! Karma absolutely loved him. I've never seen my cat doing "biscuits" with anyone else apart from me and on day 2, I was sent a video of her doing it with him! Oh and kisses... She gave him kisses! He's definitely a "cat whisperer" and I'll obviously book again with him!!!
I had a very good experience. I felt comfortable leaving my cat, Freya, in Mike's care and was confident that she was safe and well looked after while I was away. Everything went smoothly, and Freya seemed happy and relaxed when I returned. Communication was easy, and Mike sent plenty of cute photos and videos, which was very reassuring. It was clear that she was being properly cared for, and I would happily trust Mike with Freya again in the future.
We're so pleased that we selected Mike for looking after Tango. Ha can be a stroppy old boy at times but he got on with Mike straight away. We received photo updates while we were away and he didn't seem to miss us at all. We are very happy and will certainly use Mike again
Mike was very reliable and gave me updates about Roma throughout the time I was away. I came home to a very happy and relaxed cat! Thank you!

Schedule
I enjoy the ever changing schedule of pet sitting as it keeps things fresh. Some periods are busier than others but whether your pet is the only one I’m seeing that day, or one of many, I will always put as much effort into keeping them happy & healthy while you are away as possible.
