About: I've always lived with animals, which is part of the reason I am currently in Uni studying to be a Vet. I have worked with many animals on farms, in zoos, and in clinics. If I'm taking care of your pet, I'll listen to your concerns and try to give the best experience to both you and your pet 🐾 As mentioned earlier, I am a student and have classes 9am until 5pm, so on weekdays I am free after that time, whilst on weekends I am free whenever. I won't take pets to my own home, but if I am asked to do drop-ins to check in on your pet, I will make sure to do everything you ask me to and will constantly send you updates to reassure you.

About: I have been taking care of pets since 8 years now. Along with my husband, I moved countries, leaving our pets ( 2 dogs and 2 cats) behind with our loving family who currently take care of them! Making use of all this built up love and longing for our fur babies till we meet them again! x I am currently on mat leave and husband works 4 days which gives us plenty of time to board according to our availability and your needs. We have a fenced garden outside but the cats will be mostly inside our house which is secure and with me at home at all times, safety isn’t a problem.
