Pet Sitting Old Buckenham

About: Hi, I’m Rhi! I’m a bubbly 32 year old who absolutely adores animals. My own family consists of one goofy Golden Retriever, two cats who firmly believe they run the house, and a leopard gecko, so I’m no stranger to a variety of personalities! I’ve spent my whole life around animals and honestly wouldn’t want it any other way. While I don’t have any formal animal care qualifications, I have years of hands-on experience caring for my own furry family members, as well as looking after friends’ and family’s pets whenever they’ve needed a helping hand. I’m passionate about giving them all the love, patience, respect and attention they need. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and other small pets, whether that’s feeding, walking, playtime, administering routines, or simply keeping them company with a calm and reassuring presence. One of my favourite things about pet sitting is getting to know each animal’s individual character. I understand that some pets are full of energy and love to play, while others are shy and need a little more time and space to feel comfortable. I have a calm and patient nature, so I’m always happy to let your pets set the pace and build trust in their own time. Equally, I’m more than happy to be silly, playful, and energetic for those who love attention, games, and adventures! As the owner of an adolescent Golden Retriever, I know how important consistency is when it comes to training and routines. I’ll always do my best to follow your pet’s usual schedule, rules, and training cues so they have a familiar and stress-free experience while you’re away. My priority is always making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, happy, and well cared for. As a pet owner myself, I know how worrying it can be leaving our furry family when we are away, so understand how important it is to trust someone with your beautiful pets. I’ll always care for your pets with the same kindness, attention, and affection that I give my own. I’m very fortunate that my job allows me to be quite flexible with my hours, so I can be available and travel easily most of the time, as I work remotely. I don’t have many commitments other than my own pets who can be looked after by my partner. This leaves me free to give your furry family member plenty of attention and affection throughout the day. I know every pet is different, it’s what I love about them! So I try to care for them in a way that suits them best. If they’re full of energy, I’m happy to keep them entertained with walks, playtime, and enrichment games. If they’re a little nervous or need some space, I’m equally happy to take things slowly and let them come to me in their own time. I’m also happy to stick to any routines you’ve worked hard to put in place (I know how hard this can be) whether that’s crate training, meal times, training cues, or little things that help them feel settled and secure in their environment. One thing you can definitely expect from me is updates! I know how much I miss my own pets when I’m away, so I’ll make sure you’re kept in the loop with messages, photos, and videos. If you’re anything like me, 90% of my camera roll is of my furry family.

“Wendy is lovely and she really loves dogs. She is very friendly, efficient and quick to respond. It was great to have a bit of extra time out today knowing that my dogs were going to be taken care of. We will definitely be calling on Wendy again. Thank you ❤️”

“Georgia was fantastic with our dog, Suggsy. She sent lots of photos and updates, and we always felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands. Suggsy was happy and well cared for, and we’d gladly use Georgia again. Highly recommend!”

About: With over five years of experience in looking after all kinds of animals as well as growing up in a house full of animals I am now available to look after furry friends whilst back home from university. Whilst my experience is mainly in the realms of dogs, cats, horses, hamsters and guinea pigs I have also looked after rabbits, birds and even a tortoise! I have had plenty of work experience through my degree in veterinary practices allowing me to handle medications as needed and keep an eye on any more senior animals as well, with which I aim to give owners some peace of mind as I completely understand how daunting it can feel when a pet has health issues and to trust someone else to monitor these. I currently work an online job for my university student union, which is part time. This means I have plenty of time to check in on furry friends and keep ontop of their daily schedules! Other than that I would ideally be going to the gym however if one of your furry friends needs 24/7 care it goes without saying that it would always be the priority! I will be able to take your dog out and about to local dog parks or for quieter walks through the lovely Norfolk countryside! With a car and full clean driving licence I would be more than happy to take your pets to safe local areas or walk them from your home. Which ever you would prefer and they would be more comfortable with!

About: Hello! I am a veterinary nurse currently working in kings Lynn. Here to help and have animal cuddles! Due to having Veterinary experience, I have knowledge of animal first aid and how to accommodate specific health conditions during my time with them. I am able to administer mediation effectively. I understand some degree of animal behaviour but wish to further this in the future. I honestly do believe, dogs make the world a better place! I am currently 3 days a week in king Lynn as a veterinary nurse. I am happy to work around shifts and find days/hours that suit both people. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t be able to care for any pets at my residence. Hopefully would be able to in the future when I have my own place.

“10/10 again :) our girls are certainly becoming a fan, they seem so relaxed when we return which is lovely as they can get easily stressed. Great communication each day which puts us at ease, thank you so much and we will be rebooking when we next go away! ”

“Absolutely 1000% would use Danielle again. Bruno loved her and she loved him. Always kept me upto date on how he was doing. Always sent me photos of him. He was a very happy dog when I came back home. I would recommend Danielle to anyone.”

About: I have grown up with pets all my life mainly dogs, of all sizes. We have always had a family dog along with other pets like cats, mice, guinea pigs, rabbits and more. My mum and brother currently own Pomeranians which came from the same litter and a rescue chihuahua. I love being outside and walking in the woods, and fields surrounding my area so there would be plenty of time for them to be outside. I am currently taking a break from my job so I am home full time apart from one hour a day I would go to the gym. I have a two bedroom house in a quiet location in attleborough with a decent size enclosed garden for them to go to the toilet as regular as they need. I am currently taking a break from work so I spend a lot of time at home and it walking. I spend about an hour-2 a day in the gym. Other than that I am cooking or at home. I have a two bedroom house which they are free to explore freely, a large garden which has a secure fence and gate. I live alone and rarely have visitors so they would feel comfortable once settled.

About: I love animals and always have from a young age, and it is a great passion of mine to provide care for pets! From a young age we had dogs, cats, budgies, fish, snails, hamsters any pets possible I made my parents get them, therefore no animal is too small and I have experience looking after the majority of them! However the main pet we have always had is a dog which is useful for me, as I love to walk and walking the dog is a great way to just relax from the other stresses, currently we have a little black Cocker Spaniel who is incredibly good with any other dogs with a very good temperament, I am more than happy for her to meet your dog for doggy day care or walks. But equally if you prefer she can stay at home, but doggy day-care they may come in contact with one and other, although steps will be taken to prevent this if you prefer Pet care is my full time job so provided I have no other bookings I will be able to provide any of my regular services you might need. Secure front garden, dogs will always be kept an eye on when outside. If house sitting I will always ask that the garden is secure and take steps to make sure all information is known before the booking starts to keep you pets safe and happy 😊

“My cat, Ellie was very chilled when i got home. She had obviously enjoyed her time with Olivia. Its great to be able to go away knowing that she will be in safe hands and happy. Many thanks Olivia!”

“We have two new rescues and we asked Brett to pop in and keep them company while we were away for the day. Brett came over the day before to meet the girls - Jess is still very anxious and slowly settling in, but Brett was very calm and comforting with her. He was very responsive and accommodating through the whole process, and provided a lot of reassurance for us that they were in safe hands while we were away. Thanks Brett!!”

About: I grew up with dogs since I was 8. I've been dog sitting for several breeds for the last 6 years.

Happy to go for long or short dog walks, have a large garden too for some fetch. Whether your pet is big or small, I'm familiar with looking after dogs from 3kg - 50kg, so I'm happy to help whatever the size of your pooch🐾 I adore all animals so trust me they will be spoilt in our home! Our garden is fenced, we are happy to have dogs on our bed/ furniture, it's a dog friendly house! I'm also familiar with giving dogs medication if necessary. I also send little updates, with pictures of your furry friend 🐾❤️ We have dog bowls and towels here, so no need to bring any for your stay. Showers/baths are also available for your pet❤️
