Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Rachel I have two grown-up daughters and work full-time in the NHS at St. Georges Hospital [Monday- Friday] I grew-up in Yorkshire surrounded by animals, my mum used to take in stray cats. I spent a great deal of my time helping to take care of those cats. All with their individual personalities. Also in my childhood I grew-up around horses and I was lucky enough to have my own horse called Prince [a long with a goat called Heidi]. For the last 4 years I have been looking after small dogs, without charge through Borrow My Doggy. In which I have been providing day care, over night and weekend care without charge. This has brought me great joy, built new friendships and has been life changing. Recently we have moved to Carshalton to a lovely ground floor maisonette, with a lovely garden that is private and very secure. Plus, in the Carshalton area we have lots of parks, green areas, river walks which are great for doggy walking. With our recent move, I would like to earn a small extra income by doing something I love - looking after small dogs. By providing weekend care, over night stays, and doggy walking services. Additionally I can provide house sitting and cat feeding services. Helping pet owners find safe, loving and reliable care for their beloved pets. The service I am able to offer is mainly weekend care due to work commitments. Plus evening doggy walking services, and occasional over night stays in the week. For anyone needing cat feeding services, I would be able to accommodate early morning visits plus evening visits. If anyone is looking for a house sitter, this is something I am also able to offer. Please if you would like to know anything else, or have any further questions do not hesitate to contact me and I look forward to hearing from you.

Richel is an excellent cat sitter and true animal lover. She was punctual, kept me updated with daily photos, and gave my cat lots of love and attention.she did more than what we payed for and daily visits our cat. I felt completely at ease knowing Richel was caring for her 21 days. I came home to a happy, relaxed kitty.I will definitely book her again and highly recommend her to any pet parent.

Rachel kindly took on a drop in request at short notice. She took Willow for a walk and fed her, and cleaned the litter tray for Smudge and Scooter. Everything in the house was looked after and will use her again.
