“What an amazing experience! Johnny looked after our cat for a week while we were in Morocco- we came back to a happy shiny cat and a pristine house. He is respectful, thoughtful and very friendly.

About: Trusted to care for animals from a young age, I’ve been relied on by family, friends, and neighbours to provide calm, responsible, and loving care for pets of all kinds. Having just finished university, I’m currently seeking flexible work that fits around my creative projects. Pet care is a great way to stay active and engaged—I’m available a lot and can easily adapt my schedule to meet the needs of pets and their owners. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are my top priorities when caring for pets in their own home. I make sure to follow all the owner’s instructions carefully — from feeding and medication to exercise and routines. I respect the pet’s space, keep a watchful eye for any signs of distress, and ensure their environment stays secure and comfortable. Building trust with both pets and owners means being reliable, communicative, and attentive to each animal’s unique needs

However, should anyone need some quiet time or a break we do have a baby gate that shuts off the upstairs. I have walked a gorgeous bouncy black lab throughout this past years and I looked after and walked dogs throughout my second and third year of university and had a range of regular and new clients. I’m honest and reliable and will work my best around any schedule you have. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to pop me a message. Thank you for reading!

I am also happy to send regular pictures and videos of your furry friend whilst on their adventure so you can continue your day with the knowledge that they are safe and happy.

victoria h.
“Vikki cat sat for us in April 2025. From the get-go she was communicative, warm and friendly, and we knew straight away that she would be a good fit for us. Our cat is very nervous and has health conditions, so we needed a responsible, calm sitter, who would be prepared to do health monitoring while we were away. Vikki ticked all the boxes, and we were very happy with the per-visit updates and photos on whatsapp. Our nervous cat warmed up to her over the course of the weekend, and I'm sure next time they'll be firm friends. We'll definitely use Vikki again, and we're happy to recommend her as a sitter to others.”
