Cat Sitting South Gloucestershire

About: I’m a student nurse who’s experienced in taking care of both people and pets. I have experience in looking after cats - I’ve lived with them since I was born. I have also lived with dogs that I have enjoyed helping take care of when they needed ( or when I’ve just needed a bit of company!) I am currently on holiday! In term time in a student paediatric nurse :) I’m just looking for something fun and bit different to do whilst I’m off. I’m really happy to chill at the pets house or take them for long walks! I will not be able to provide services at my home

“I’m always nervous leaving our cat when we go away but with Carol looking after him and keeping us updated I didn’t worry once. She genuinely cares and enjoyed spending time with Georgie - I didn’t feel like he was being left alone for a week.”

About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. My grandparents have 2 labradoodles and 1 westie who I have walked, fed, bathed and loved many times. I've grown up with 2 old English sheepdogs who I have loved and cared for, for 11 years. My fiance also had a cockapoo who I cared for and took on many walks. I'm going to be available over half terms and summer holidays as I am a full time teacher. During those periods I will be free all day every day to pay attention to any needs that your pet may have. I'm happy to make your pet as comfortable as they need in their home as well as meeting all of their needs. I am happy to crate them at night or just leave them to roam. I have lots of walks nearby so I can walk them at any point of the day. Also I'm happy to bathe and brush any dogs too.

“Rosie is a great sitter and a safe pair of hands. She helped me looking after Rudi in a difficult time and with very short notice. I'm grateful for her help and would recommend her to anybody needing high quality and attentive pet care. Thank you so much Rosie.”

“It was great to have Georgia do two drop ins on Henny. She sent photos and videos and left notes of what they got up to. She also came beforehand for a meet and greet which was so helpful as it was my first experience with Rover”

“Hilary was amazing and Candy knew she was in safe hands straight away. We were in London for the day and I felt at ease knowing that Candy would be Hilarys priority. I cannot recommend Hilary enough for peace of mind and for the greatest care of your pets.”

About: I have looked after, cared for and loved all my animals in my lifetime, growing up with 3 Ridgebacks started my passion! I have had snakes, tortoise, rabbits, cats. I am passionate about all animals and am happy to do what I can to look after your beloved baby. I have a black lab cross now. My friends and family have dogs that we walk together regularly. I walk my dog daily along with weekend adventures, lots of enrichment and training. I am confident walking dogs and have years of experience. I am currently offering dog walking and pet visits part time. I am happy to negotiate what what your needs may be and what I can accommodate. Having owned different animals, I have gained lots of experience. I am happy and confident I can look after and keep them safe under the guidance of yourselves and your space. I am patient and caring.

About: I’ve always loved and taken care of cats since a little girl, lots of experience with them. I have experience with dogs too, more so in recent years. I have had cats all of my life, and a dog of my own for the last 6 years. New to pet sitting outside of friends and family. I work part time from home with a very flexible schedule so visiting your babies will be easy! I will work around my drop-in visits. Both cats and dogs deserve lots of attention, cuddles and enrichment as well as their basic needs like food, water, clean litter tray etc. I will do everything I can to provide your pet with everything it needs! A drop in visit will last 30 minutes, unless upgraded to the 60 minute option. My preference is one visit per day, but I can do up to 3 visits for an additional price.

About: I know the feeling of trying to find the right person to look after my pet, which is why I’m here to provide you with the reassurance that your pet will be as well cared for as my own! I rescued my cat Pippa at 3 weeks old, and we’ve been joint at the hip ever since! I’ve always owned cats and small animals, and I’ve also spent lots of time caring for dogs, too. I work from home so my schedule is flexible. I have experience with many breeds including (but not limited to) Golden Retriever, Collie, Irish Setter, Dalmatian, Cairn Terrier, Burnese mountain dog, French Bulldog, Dachshund, Cocker Spaniel, Maltese, Cockapoo, Lurcher, Pug, Pointer and more. Please get in touch for more info, I’d be happy to help! I have recently left my role as a Midwife and I am now a mortgage advisor working at home during weekdays. I provide morning, lunchtime and/or afternoon walks. I only offer drop in visits as I own a cat. When I am in your home, I am calm and approachable as to not excite the pet too much! But we can still play and have cuddles :)

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals all my life, from growing up with dogs to helping at an emergency rescue centre (and of course adopting some waifs and strays along the way !) to fostering kittens and puppies and rehoming elderly, anxious and sick cats and dogs . My sister is a vet, so medical expertise is a phone call away. Your pet will be like a member of our family for the time we care for them. I don’t have any pets of my own currently. I work part-time during the week remotely from home around dropping off and picking up my children from school so I’m at home to care and keep your pet company and go out walking locally . I have lots of room for pets in my 3 bed terraced home and a good-sized lawned fenced garden. I live a short walk from Oldbury Court Estate which is ideal for dog walks, including lots of space for the energetic and quieter areas for the more nervous of disposition . My children adore animals and will also sensitively lavish your pet with affection and play for those who want it . If your dog has not stayed with a sitter before, is nervous or experiences separation anxiety , we may need to arrange additional settling in sessions prior to the booking so we can all be sure your dog will feel happy and settled here for the duration of their stay.

About: I study animal management, having completed level 2 and currently working towards my level 3 qualification. I have always been surrounded by animals growing up, I regularly look after my friends and neighbours pets when they are away. I have hands-on experience working in dog daycare setting working with large number of dogs, providing group walks (leash off and leash on walks), feeding, cleaning, enrichment activities and monitoring behaviour to ensure the best for their welfare. I’m calm and confident handling small & medium sized dogs, and I have experience working with a variety of breeds. I currently have 4 cats at home, giving me strong experience with pet care. I previously owned and cared for a Shih Tzu from a young age till her senior age, which has helped me develop a good understanding of their behaviour, needs, and daily routines. My qualifications & experiences: - Level 2 animal management - Level 3 animal management (in progress) - dog walking training - farm work experience - dog day care experience - dog hotel & grooming experience I am currently working part time in a dog day care centre and studying in college. I am available on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sunday. During summer holiday I will be available for full time care. I am flexible with timings and can try to accommodate different schedules where possible. I follow each pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I ensure they are fed, have fresh water, and get the right amount of exercise, play, and attention. I always prioritise safety, keep the environment clean, and pay close attention to their behaviour and needs.

About: Hi! I'm a reliable, caring animal lover with plenty of experience looking after both dogs and cats, I have a dog and cat at home. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I'm happy to tailor my care to make them feel safe, happy, and comfortable. Because I have a dog at home who is reactive around other dogs, I'm unable to host dogs in my own house. However, I'm available for drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting in your home, where your pets can stay relaxed in their familiar environment. I'm also happy to care for cats in your home. I have lots of experience with anxious dogs as I have one myself. Whether it's playtime, walks, feeding, medication, cuddles, or simply keeping your pets company while you're away, I'll treat them with the same care and attention I'd want for my own. I'll also keep you updated with regular messages and photos, so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands. I will be around all day to walk your dog and help them with their daily routine, I can walk them around a schedule that suits the dog. I believe the best pet care starts with following each pet's normal routine as closely as possible. Before every booking, I like to learn about their feeding schedule, exercise needs, favourite activities, any medications, and anything that helps them feel comfortable. I will follow any guidance on how to look after your pets and use common sense at all times. For house sitting, I'll care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, helping to keep their routine consistent while you're away. I'll also take care of basic household tasks such as bringing in post, watering plants, and keeping your home tidy if requested.

“Very happy with the communication and care from Amber. Received lovely updates and pictures daily which is reassuring when on holiday. Would definitely book again.”
