Sitting these two characters.

During my meet and greet the owner was very pleased that the large ginger one, perched happily on my laptop in the pic, actually came to me and allowed me to stroke him. Apparently this is unusual and he didn’t take well to a previous sitter.

The other one seen being stroked I was advised would likely make herself scarce but again frequently comes for a stroke in between her outdoor ventures.

Remember, if you have a cat only household and are looking for a person who just seems to have a knack with pets of varying characters, I do offer free sits for periods of 1 week or more.

Had these two beauties cross their field to come and say 'Hi' and get some nose rubs.

My Doberman charge tried his best to have a play with them but they weren't having any of it from this odd looking 'foal'!

‘I’ll just wait here till you’re ready to stroke me again.’

He’s a big softie this one

Back with my very big buddy.

But sadly his partner in crime is no longer with us 🥲

The downside of pet sitting, especially those repeat and regular clients is that their pets become your pets and their loss is yours too.

I sat them both in February and there was absolutely no signs of anything being wrong with her. Just over a month later she was put to sleep due to heart failure.

RIP gorgeous girl.

22nd July - 22nd September Availability - Cambridge Area ONLY

Hi everyone, its been a while since I've posted as I've been trying to figure out how I combine my love for animals and pet sitting with my iris photography pop-up events that I'm hosting around the UK.

For the period above, I need to be around Cambridge (up to 15 miles) as have a few hospital and doctors appointments to attend.

So I am offering the following deals for this period.

✅ Free housesits (where there are no animals involved). If you're going away but would like someone at your home to water plants etc.

✅ Free house and cat ONLY sits. If you have a cat or cats that are okay to be left alone during the day I will be happy to consider free sits.

✅ Reduced rates for dog sits IF you can arrange a neighbour, friend or family to cover Sundays between 8am - 6pm so that I can host an iris photography pop-up in the area. The dog/s must also be okay with being left alone for at least 3 - 4 hours should I need to attend a hospital or doctors appointment during the course of the sit.

Things to note:

I travel in a 6m motorhome towing a motorcycle on a transverse trailer. For insurance purposes I need to be able to park the van off-road on a driveway or other area of your property that is not on the public highway.

7 days minimum - the sit needs to be at least 7 days.

So if you're within a 15 miles radius of Cambridge and are looking for a professional sitter that respects your home and animals, between the dates above, please do get in touch for a chat :)

My two charges for the next couple of weeks 🥰

Did you know that as I travel around the UK undertaking my photography project do document as much of it as possible in images and video, I also host iris photography pop up events?

Obviously I don't host these when I'm committed to a pet sit!

But if you like the look of a totally unique piece of artwork then I can set up the equipment in your home if I'm pet sitting for you and you'd pay the same price as if you were attending one of my pop up events (£30 per person).

If you're interested in my photography project or want to keep track of where my iris photography pop up sessions are held, please do follow my The Touring Eye page :)

Back with my regulars, Little, Large and Ladies

Back with these two lovely souls and their kitty friends.

This is, I believe, my 5th sit for the household and the two pooches gave me a very warm and excited welcome on my arrival.

I have limited availability for the rest of 2025 if you’re in need of a professional, dedicated and genuine animal lover to care for your pets in your absence.

Take a look at the pinned post on my page for my current availability

Hi all

Slight change to how I operate.

Moving forward I can only accept pet sits that are at least 9 weeks in the future. This is because I am planning several road trips for 2025 and once planned, I cannot deviate from them.

Those who book 9+ weeks in advance I can work into my rolling 2 month route.

This is my remaining availability for 2025

April: 1st - 18th
May: 7th - 31st
June: 1st - 30th
August - 5th - 20th
September - 1st - 30th
October -1st - 31st

If you're looking for a professional, dedicated animal lover with many reviews and references, then get in touch to discuss your requirements.

Many dog owners love tossing sticks for their pups to chase, but did you know this common game can be deadly? 😨

🩺 Why Throwing Sticks is Risky:

❌ Splinters & Punctures – When a stick shatters, sharp pieces can lodge in your dog’s mouth, throat, or stomach.
❌ Serious Throat Injuries – Dogs often catch sticks at high speed, and if the stick lands upright in the ground, it can impale them.
❌ Internal Damage – Even if swallowed, small stick fragments can lead to infections or blockages.

🎾 Safer Alternatives:

✔ Rubber or rope toys designed for fetch.
✔ Tennis balls (supervised to avoid chewing).
✔ Floating toys for water play.

🐾 Have you ever had a scary experience with a stick-related injury? Let me know! 👇
