Highlights
Pet care experience
Trusted Carer for your Furry Friend
My family has grown up surrounded by dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters and even for a short time, ferrets and stick insects. Lasy year I welcomed Norman, a Dachshund, into my home and he is now my constant companion. I know only too well how difficult it is to be away from your beloved pets and how reassuring it is to have someone you can trust looking after them. For the past 8 years, I have been a member of Trusted Housesitters and I have completed numerous sits for pets in their own home. I have received excellent feedback from the owners (I can provide copies of their reviews) and I have a 5☆ rating. I have also become a regular sitter for a couple of them, returning whenever I can. I will always endeavour to be completely committed to caring for your pet and make the experience an enjoyable one for them and you
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
We first met Sheila about 5 years ago when she came to look after our dog through Trusted House sitters. Over the years she has visited to look after our dog Trudy, who as since passed, and recently our new dog Micera. Sheila is trustworthy, resourceful and has a real affinity to animals and cant be praised enough. We now consider her as a family friend, and is highly recommended as a pet sitter.
Sheila has looked after my cat, Polly, most years since 2018. She is reliable, organised, self sufficient and liaises well before the sit. I always find the bungalow in the same state I left it, and she is happy to water my myriad of outside potted plants as well as the indoor ones. The most important thing is that Polly responds well to her. She has always been somewhat temperamental and not the most friendly cat, but settle well with Sheila. I am more than happy to recommend Sheila
