Some of you already know me and know my huge love and deep passion for animals great and small. For the last 30 years I have been working as a health care assistant whilst caring and rehabilitating wild hedgehogs, birds and other wild animals in trouble which is my other passion. I have a few pets at home with me including our 8 year old Sprocker dog Lara, who is very energetic and my two rescue f
errets Red and Bear, who are very cheeky and can be great escape artists! Over the years I have helped friends, family and locals with looking after their pets whilst they go to work and go on holiday. Growing up in my early teens, I volunteered my time on a Saturday at our local RSPCA/pet shop based in Southampton, looking after various small animals. My fondest memory was helping to socialise the abandoned puppies and feeding them. This experience made me want to work with animals more, so I later studied Animal Care and Management where I learnt a lot more about our furry best friends and a lot of other animals, like dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, guinea pigs and hamsters along with some curious insects! I am also well-known for my work with the British Divers Marine Life Rescue and as a wildlife rehabber for swifts and other hirundine birds. I am now set up to do pet sitting professionally. I am fully insured, have references and have a full enhanced DBS check so your best friends will be safe and well, and you will be rest assured with me.
