Cat Sitting in Blackpool

About: Your precious pet/s will be loved and cared for by me as I appreciate how special our pets are to us. I have been around dogs and other pets (inc. cats) for most of my life and love their companionship. I have recently relocated to the UK after residing in New Zealand for 20+ years (working as a teacher and running a dog home boarding service in the school holidays). I am in the lucky position to be able to offer my services as a dog homestay host or as a sitter in your home, dog walker and/or home pet visits. I have cared for many different breeds, ages and sizes of dogs. I love all the doggy cuddles; indeed, taking a dog for a walk, you could say, is one of my 'happy places.' I have included in my photos some of the reviews I received from many of my previous happy dog owners. The last dog I owned was a Cavoodle and he developed epilepsy at 5 years of age. I had to manage his condition for 6 years before he passed away. I am therefore used to administering medicine and adhering to a strict medicine regime (my dog had to have his meds at specific times throughout the day), and I have experience caring for dogs with specific needs. Importantly, I am qualified in dog psychology and training and used to take part in, and on several occasions ran, a dog agility class. I hold a level 3 Ofqual recognized certificate in canine behaviour and care in a home boarding environment. I am also trained in canine first aid. I offer a high standard of care and am happy to ensure that your pet remains calm and happy while I am responsible for them. A meet and greet is required before I accept a booking. If staying in my home your dog must be fully vaccinated and upto date with flea/worm treatments. I live in a smoke free home. For new boarding clients- Before a stay of more than 2 nights a 1 night trial stay is required. Also, as I often have more than 1 dog at a time, it is preferable that your pooch is socialised with other dogs. For new house sitting clients- I am only available for house sitting for 2 or more pets When booking please be as accurate as possible with your drop off and pick up time. Home boarding/house sitting includes 2x daily walks (weather permitting). Daycare also includes a daily walk. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. I am free to care for your pet throughout the day, 7 days a week. When boarding overnight your dog will follow its normal routines with regards to walks, play (enrichment activities) and feeding. I have a house with a fenced garden and your dog would be cared for as if it was at home. I would follow any instructions given with regard to the care of your pet.

“Thank you so much. He loves having you look after. Thank you”

About: I am currently a third year veterinary nursing student with a passion for providing the best care to all pets. I have had my dog for almost 13 years and prior to that, we would dog sit for family friends going away. With my profession I am comfortable with caring for all kinds of pets including reptiles and rodents. I also have experience medicating a myriad of species so would be happy to assist with this if your pet(s) require anything throughout the day. Growing up I've volunteered and worked at a number of different kennels and catteries local to me and I have since been volunteering at a cat sanctuary for almost three years and love spending my free time with animals. I am a very active person with my favourite hobbies being walking and going to the gym so you can rest assured I would meet your pets exercise and enrichment needs to keep them happy and settled in your absence.
My services include home boarding with your pets, walking, bathing, medicating, house visits and spending quality time with your pets in your absence. I’m currently working part time so my mornings and evenings are typically free on the days I work and I have the whole day free on my days off to spend with your fur-babies I’m comfortable keeping your pets as close to their typical routine as possible to keep them stress-free. I can walk and medicate at the same times of day and can regularly update you with pictures for piece of mind

About: Hi! I’m Elisabeth or Libby, I’m 19 years old and have grown up with dogs my whole life. I’ve had hands-on experience caring fora variety of breeds like Labradors, Staffies, and Scottish Terriers, and have been the main caregiver for my family and friends dogs for years. This has given me experience with different temperaments, exercise needs, and routines — from energetic walks and playtime to calmer companionship and daily care. I’m confident with basic animal first aid skills and experienced in spotting signs that a pet may be unwell or behaving differently from normal. Through caring for family pets, I’ve also had experience communicating with vets, including assisting during video consultations and carrying out checks such as inspecting teeth and gum health under veterinary guidance. I’m planning to study Animal Behaviour at undergraduate level in September, as working with and understanding animals is something I’m genuinely passionate about. I’m also respectful, reliable, and trustworthy when caring for pets in other people’s homes, making sure both your dog and your home are looked after carefully while you’re away. Hi! I’m a reliable and caring animal lover currently taking some time before starting university in September after finishing college. This gives me plenty of free time and flexibility to dedicate to looking after your pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow any routines or special care instructions your pet needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like my own! Your pet’s safety, comfort, health, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, caring, and trustworthy environment for dog walking, daytime pet sitting, and overnight stays, either in my cosy one-bedroom seafront flat or within your own home where your pet feels most comfortable. Having recently finished college before starting university in September, I currently have a very flexible schedule, allowing me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and care throughout the day. I understand how important routines, patience, and trust are when caring for someone’s pet, and I always aim to make owners feel confident and reassured while they’re away. I take pride in keeping both my own flat and clients’ homes clean, tidy, and well cared for at all times. During walks, I always prioritise safety by using secure leads, staying attentive to surroundings, and making sure pets are exercised responsibly and comfortably. Living by the seafront also allows me to offer enjoyable beachfront walks, giving dogs fresh air, exercise, and a calm environment to explore safely. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual health and wellbeing, ensuring they receive the care, affection, and attention they need to feel safe, relaxed, and happy. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing in a peaceful environment by the sea, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well looked after at all times.

“I’m so happy with the care and skill with which Jane looked after my 2 cats during twice-daily drop-ins at home in Layton. She is experienced and thorough and I really felt that the cats were in good hands whilst I was away. I returned to happy, contented (and properly medicated) kitties and the whole process was seamless for them and me. Jane followed all my instructions and has a keen eye to notice if anything is wrong or needs any attention. Getting daily photos of the cats and updates from her was a delight! Thank you Jane, from Mel”
