Experienced, animal loving vet nurse
Pet care experience
My name is Sophie I've been looking after animals since I was 7 years old. I've had cats and dogs in my family since this age and I've worked in veterinary for 8 years. I'm a fully qualified Registered Veterinary Nurse who has worked in referral practice for 3 years soaking up as much knowledge as I can about pet care. I am experienced in giving medication and injections if required. I'm very happy to water your plants, open up your curtains, take in parcels etc. whilst you are away. I have experience with nervous, timid dogs and dogs that don't tend to get along with other dogs. I absolutely adore border collies, german shepherds and belgian malinois! I am also very cat crazy and I own two lovely rescue cats called Heidi and Hazel.
Reviews
Sophie was great, communicated really well and sent me some lovely photos of my fur babies whilst I was away which put me really at ease, and they seemed to take to her really well.
Sophie was fantastic. This was the first time we had been away overnight but Sophie really put my mind at ease knowing they would be in the best hands. Our boys really enjoyed her company and were extremely well looked after. Highly recommend Sophie and would absolutely trust her to take care of our boys in the future, I’m sure they would be very happy to see her!
Sophie is a compassionate, friendly, lovely person and went above and beyond to look after my two cats! It's great to know she is a vet nurse too for some piece of mind knowing that my cats are in the best hands if anything were to happen to them.

Availability
I currently do veterinary work part time doing "supply" work at various veterinary practices so I have lots of time available for pet sitting. Friday and Tuesday evenings I teach fitness classes so I will not be able to do drop ins 5-9pm on Friday or Tuesday evenings.
