About: With over 20 years of experience as an animal trainer, I have worked with and cared for various animal species, including cats and dogs. I hold a BSc (Hons) in Conservation Biology and an MA in Anthrozoology, which have equipped me with a deep understanding of human and non-human animal interactions and relationships. My extensive background in both practical training and academic study allows me to provide exceptional care and training tailored to each animal's unique needs. As a self-employed owner of a dog training and working dog company, I have the flexibility to integrate companion animal care into my daily and weekly routine. This allows me to dedicate ample time to take on other animal care clients, ensuring each individual receives the attention and care they need. When providing animal care services in the owner's home, I prioritize maintaining the comfort and routine of the animals. This includes adhering to their established feeding schedules and dietary requirements, ensuring they receive regular exercise and playtime suited to their energy levels and preferences, and attending to grooming and hygiene needs as required. Additionally, I prioritize the safety of the owner's home and respect their space, maintaining cleanliness and security at all times. I remain attentive to any specific instructions or behaviors provided by the owner to ensure consistent and tailored care during my visits.

20. Florence S.
About: I've plenty of experience as a pet sitter and working as a volunteer at animal rescue sanctuaries. I grew up with cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens and ducks and I had a deep love for pigs! I would often take care of the animals when my parents were away and walk my singing teacher's dog. I love to travel, often volunteering as I do, for example in India where I helped look after, feed and walk over 20 dogs, 10 cats and varying numbers of puppies and kittens as well as rehoming. I've been a registered cat sitter in the UK for 5 years and began housesitting last year which I absolutely love! I'm a musician and currently focusing on home recording which means I have my own flexible schedule and need lots of nice breaks to cuddle animals and go outside for walks! It's important for me to know exactly how you'd like your pets looked after. I'm attentive to details and making sure your pet feels as comfortable as they can in your absence. I'll follow your usual routine and be sure to keep your home clean and tidy.
