Friendly and experienced pet-sitter from Dublin :)
Pet care experience
My name is Muireann and I'm from Dublin, Ireland. I love animals and have two big cats, Rocky and Rigby (we're big fans of The Beatles in my house). Previously we had two other cats, Honey and Korky, who we had for around 14 years each. We also kept tropical fish in the past. I've had cats my whole life so have a lot of experience caring for them. My cats are two very big boys who need a lot of playtime and exercise. They also beg for food constantly so I am well-used to sticking to a strict schedule with their feeding times. I love to cuddle with them on the couch and have them with me throughout the day. I have minded cats and dogs for friends and family many times and am comfortable looking after both. We kept tropical fish for a number of years in my house and also minded rabbits from time to time. I have plenty of experience house-sitting and looking after houseplants. I have lots of houseplants myself so am more than happy to keep plants alive while you're away :)
Reviews
I would highly recommend Muireann to look after your pets. Muireann has been my neighbour for a number of years and looked after my cat Sockey and my dog George while I was away last year. She stayed in our house while we were away to make sure that Sockey and George were properly looked after. Sockey and George both need a lot of attention and stimulation. Muireann played with them with their favourite toys and made sure George was taken out for his walk twice a day. She also made sure to clean Sockey's litter tray as needed. She sent us a few updates while we were away which was very important to us as we really missed Sockey and George. Muireann made sure to water our plants and the house was spotless when we came home. We knew when we came home that she had really looked after both the pets and the house. Muireann is responsible and reliable, and is a kind and loving pet sitter. I would definitely recommend her to anyone with cats or dogs.
About Muireann M.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for your pet in your home, I will prioritise playtime and attention, ensuring your pet gets the care and love they need. I understand the importance of special diets/strict feeding times because of my experience with my own two cats. I am very responsible and can be trusted to keep your house safe, ensuring it is locked at night etc.
Information Muireann M. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your cat/dog has any behavioural issues/fears/medication that I should be aware of. I don't have experience administering injected medication to cats or dogs but would be open to this if given instructions as I am trained to inject an opioid antagonist drug in humans.
A typical day
A normal day for me usually involves getting up around 8am (can be earlier depending on what time your pet is usually fed at). I'm an active person and love to be outdoors. I'm happy to bring your dog wherever it is you normally walk them, and would also love to explore the area myself with them in tow. After their morning walk, I will likely spend most of the day at home, looking for jobs and apartments online. I may go into central London occasionally but will check with you first how long your pet can be left alone for and be mindful of this.

Availability
I'm actually in the process of moving to London myself at the moment. If minding your pets, my schedule would be pretty relaxed as I wouldn't be out all day sightseeing. I would likely spend a lot of the day in the house applying for jobs and apartment-hunting.
