- One dog walks
- Care for other animals (e.g. cat visits)
My name is Emma, I’m married, have three boys and am looking to venture into pet sitting.
We live in Horsforth, West Yorkshire.
I’ve been a registered childminder for five years, but have decided to follow my heart and start caring for animals instead of little humans!
I love animals and have been brought up around them from a young age, having cats and rabbits as a child.
Now I’m all grown up, we have a few furry member’s added to our family- Hugo and Toby, our two dogs, and our four cats- Archy, Deedee, Percy and Dolly.
We have also had hamsters and fish/tropical fish in the past.
I have recently started volunteering for a cat charity and in the future, hope to get involved in their trap-neuter-re-home/release program.
I am looking to offering a pet sitting services, looking after your pets in your home, a good alternative to cateries/ pet hotels. This way your pets get to stay in their own environment, making it a less stressful experience for them when you are not around.
During these visits I will feed pet, ensure they have water, clean litters/hutches, and of course, play!
I can also offer to collect mail, water plants and open/close curtains/blinds for added security when you’re away.
In the future I plan to offer 1 to1 dog walking (not group walks- great if you have a dog who would prefer all the attention! ) and a pet taxi service, because as we know, if you don’t have access to a vehicle, it can sometimes be difficult to find a taxi company who are willing to take animals.
I am fully insured, DBS police checked and will have completed a Pet First Aid Course.
