Animal Lover on a Mission!
Pet care experience
I'm Tilly, I'm 24, and I'm a huge animal lover! I am DBS checked, I have completed Canine First Aid, and I hold a Level 2 Award in Canine Care and Welfare (RQF). I've taken care of dogs and cats for friends and family. This includes walking, feeding, and bathing. I completed a Level 3 Diploma in Dog Grooming, which gave me more experience in handling dogs. I've had some experience with puppies too, so I know they can require lots of energy and a consistent routine. Spending time with animals is like therapy for me, and my goal is to become a full-time pet sitter. However, I need more experience to achieve this, so I want to expand my furry clientele! While I am unable to offer pet care at my own home, I am fully capable of providing pet-sitting services at your pets' own homes. This includes drop-in, walking services, and house-sitting (depending on my availability).
Reviews
It was our first time away from our 3 cats, so we were really nervous. But Tilly was absolutely amazing and gave us updates every day. She’s super reliable and trustworthy and a huge animal lover! The cats absolutely adored her (they will miss her), and we will absolutely be booking Tilly again next time we go away! Thank you so much 💖🐾
We can't recommend Tilly enough to look after your pet, our Bedlingtons boys loved her! It made such a difference to have her stay at ours and the boys weren't disturbed. They enjoyed there 2 walks a day and even had some training on a daily basis too 😁 and to top it off we came back to a lovely clean home and a fresh bottle a milk...thanks Tilly, we'll definitely be booking you again soon x
would heartly recommend Tilly who looked after our 14 year old Jack Russell kept us up to date with how poppy was took her for walks sent pictures and videos. Tilly was professional, pleasure to talk too and overall would recommend. Never had a house sitter prior and will be definitely using the service again.
Tilly looked after our two cats for three days and was absolutely fantastic. She cared for them she made sure they had all they need and played with them. You can tell she loves cats and is very passionate about them.
About Tilly R.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
While providing care for your pets, I will, of course, ensure that their safety is at the forefront of my mind. I'll do this, by never leaving your dogs alone in your garden space, never walking off-leash unless I have your permission, always muzzling when I feel it's necessary (with your permission), and accommodating any medical needs your pet may have.
Information Tilly R. would like to know about your pet
How does your dog behave off-lead? Do they have a consistent recall? Has your dog ever shown fear/dominance aggression? Do they have any medical needs that I need to know? What's the procedure in a medical emergency? Any allergies? Am I allowed to give treats? Would you be comfortable if I introduced minimal positive reinforcement training on our walks? e.g., reward with treats, praise, or a toy. Please note: I am not a dog trainer, this would solely be to encourage your dog to walk well - this makes for a happier and more relaxed walk for the both of us!
A typical day
If your dog has a favourite ball, I will be more than happy to play a good game of fetch! And some dogs love a game of hide and seek with a toy or a treat! This is a great game for mental stimulation and it can really improve recall. There are plenty of dog parks and small greenery nooks in the area, all of which I can make into a fun time with your dog!

Availability
I'm currently working part-time, so hopefully, your needs synchronise with my availability, but my apologies if I'm unable to provide care for you at any time. The more I can expand my customer base, the quicker I can pet-sit full-time! Please be aware that I may not be able to accept house-sitting requests depending on the distance from me to your pets, and if I can leave at all during the day, as I work 4 hours a day and I have my own cats too.
