Attributes: Energetic breed experience (Border Collies and Spaniels) - Can handle large breeds - Work experience at Cambridge Reptiles - Trained at Pets at Home (ex part-time job) - Enjoys long walks - Empathetic - Experienced with: Small mammals (Bunny's, Rabbits, Guinea Pigs), Reptiles, Amphibians, Tropical Fish and Ponds.

Oliver looked after our dog and three cats for five days. He did regular updates, lots of walks and the full feeding routine. Everyone seemed very content and happy on our return and I would definitely recommend his attentive and reliable service.

Oli is fabulous. My dogs adored him and there can't be higher praise than that. He looked after them in our home, followed all instructions, and sent regular updates. We will definitely book him again.

Oliver was the peefect house guest and companion to our elderly chihuahua and chaotic labrador, who we hadnt left with anyone. Oliver took time to understand their routine, sent pictures and videos throughout and made us feel updated throughout. Will be asking for repeat visits for sure!
