Services
Saskia can care for
Availability
For dog walking: After we exchange information about your dog and their specific walking needs: duration, behaviour, socialisation etc. I will come and meet your dog ensuring we are the right match. Then we will head out to explore and sniff! I will take photos and videos for you and give tell you all about how we are getting on. For pet sitting: After we exchange information about your dog/cat, your home and their specific needs: feeding, behaviour, walking etc. I will come and meet you and your dog/cat, to ensure we are a good match. Most likely we will start the day with a morning walk after breakfast. During the day I will most likely be studying in your home, with breaks for play-time, toileting and cuddles. I rarely will leave the house for more than max. 2hrs at a time to pop to the shops, to go to the gym, or for lectures. In the evening we will go on another walk, followed by dinner and settling in for the night. For cat drop-ins: I am available for twice daily visits (morning and evening) to ensure your cat's feeding schedule remains consistent.

Safety, trust & environment
When I am a guest in your home, my priority is maintaining a stress-free, secure and loving environment for your pet. I follow your pets existing schedule, whether it's feeding times, a particular walking route or a no-sofa rule. I'm also extremely diligent when it comes to home security and will ensure all doors and gates are double-checked and I never leave keys in visible places. I treat your home with care, ensuring you return to a clean, tidy house and an happy, relaxed pet.
Information Saskia H. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any special needs or you have any specific requests beforehand. I am happy to accommodate you as long as you are upfront about your pet and their behaviour.
A typical day
As I've mentioned previously, sticking to your pets normal routine and schedule is very important to me. If there's any fun activities your pet specifically likes to do let me know!

Vet student with love to give!
Pet care experience
Hi I'm Saskia! I'm currently a 2nd year veterinary student at the University of Liverpool. Since I'm renting and can't have pets of my own at the moment, I'm looking to fill that dog or cat shaped hole in my life by caring for yours. When I'm not studying, I'm usually training for my next triathlon, so if you have a high-energy breed that loves a long walk, I'm your person. However, I'm just as happy to provide a call environment and plenty of study break cuddles for senior pets or those who prefer a calm environment. Understanding that our pets our important members of our families, I am conscious to check-in often with photos, videos and updates to ease anxiety.

Reviews
Saskia has looked after both my dog and 2 cats on multiple occasions. She has been amazing and I would definitely recommend her service to anyone. She’s very easy to communicate with and is very attentive to my pets’ needs. All my pets love her - thank you Saskia!
Saskia is fantastic at looking after my dog. She is a cockapoo who often has ears that are sore due to infection and she is always very careful not to stroke the sore spots. She is usually more enthusiastic to see my dog than she is me!
Saskia has looked after my 3 cats and 2 dogs on multiple occasions that I have been away. She has always done a great job and all the pets love her. I get regular updates from her and I have never been worried leaving my pets in her care. I recommend her very highly.
Saskia has handled animals all her life, from Guinea pigs to family pets and my own red fox Labrador! She does it with care and frankly my dog loves her more than me at this point, I’ve never seen her get so excited to see someone. Not only that but she has the knowledge of a Veterinary student, meaning I have the peace of mind in leaving my dog in her care knowing that should anything happen, she likely knows what to do more than I would! Shes a genuine, empathic and personable woman that I couldn’t recommend enough!
