Love, Care & Respect - Pet, Equine & House Sitter
Pet care experience
I have always cared for animals as my Father was an RSPCA inspector, RAF dog handler and farm worker - So we always had an array of animals to care for at my house. That love for animals has continued as I have had dogs, cats, horses, chickens and sheep all at home. I have been working as a pet sitter for about 18 months now, visiting all different homes to walk, exercise, look after & keep their pets company while their owners are away for the day or overnight. My other role as a P/T PA also means I am used to different client requests and I am happy to water plants, collect parcels etc when you are out so just ask! I am highly organised, friendly, helpful and reliable. DBS, insurance and references available.
Cat care experience
Orissa also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Orissa looked after my two Maine Coons while I was on holiday for a few days. This was my first time using rover so I wasn’t really sure what to expect and to be honest I was quite anxious. But after my meet and greet with Orissa, that all changed as she was so lovely to me and the boys and knew exactly what to do right away. While I was away Orissa would regularly send photos and write detailed reports of her visit which were so heartwarming. It reassured me and my partner that the boys were in the best hands. She took care of the boys so well, looking after their food, litter and also our house. When I came back the house was clean and tidy just how we left it. The boys seemed happy too as they had great company and someone to play with. Sometimes they can get lonely on their own so it’s nice to know there’s someone there for them. Overall, Orissa was amazing and would recommend to anyone who needs someone to take care of their furry babies while they’re away.
Orissa looked after our boys whilst we were away at a wedding. They can be a handful together but Orissa had no issues and they clearly had a great time with her - which allowed us to enjoy ourselves without worrying.
Orissa did a fantastic job
Orissa was brilliant from start to finish. I had regular updates and photographs, which was very reassuring. Also,Orissa cleaned out the guinea pigs, and treated my dogs like her own as well as keeping the animal areas clean and tidy. Going above and beyond expectations She was perfect. Thank you Orissa Thank you Rover 10/10 *****

I always treat everyones home and pets with love, care and respect - Nothing less will do and nothing is too much trouble. I am an organised perfectionist and always want my clients to know they can count on me while they are away. I also will always plan an initial meet/greet, so we can discuss requirements and I can meet you and your pets. I will go through everything in detail so I am completely clear on what you would like me to do, and I will have a form so I know all medical history, vet details, emergency contacts, feeding schedule, likes/dislikes, do curtains need to be closed/opened etc. I always get told when i leave my meet and greets 'Oh I am so relieved, I can go away knowing they are safe and are going to be looked after' Which is what I want my client to feel as that is my job :) I know personally as I have my own animals too and know how i like them and my home to be treated while I am away.
Information Orissa R. would like to know about your pet
I will send you through a form to fill in all details, however if your pet has any special needs, medication to be administered or behavioural issues etc then please let me know in advance.
A typical day
I will take advice off you as to what your pet likes/dislikes doing and treat them all as individuals! I am happy to have an active visit with lots of play or if it suits them, a more chilled sofa cuddle and fuss. Totally adaptable for each pet.
