About me: I am passionate about animals. In the past, I have pet sat for dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, rabbits, lizards, hedgehogs, rats, mice, a tortoise, a bird and a snake and have owned both cats and hamsters. I have a deep interest in exotic pets, especially snakes, and am well versed in caring for reptiles, although I have never owned one myself (I am hoping to in the near future though). The photos you cat see of me with animals on my profile include me with my 2 cats, along with some more exotic animals. When I go travelling, I often try to find native animals, and those photos are mostly taken in nature preserves. Another thing to note about me is that I am on the autism spectrum. Due to this my social skills aren't great and I often come across as a bit "weird" in initial meets- I am perfectly capable of caring for your animals though! As I do not have a car, animals I visit in your home must be within Cambridge (CB1-5), with Milton and Fulbourn considered outside of peak times.

Dogs: I am happy to care for dogs of any size and breed, and have previously looked after many large dogs. I am unable to care for dogs at my house due to owning cats, however I am able to provide visits or overnight/live in care for dogs at your house. Services can be provided at any time of day. A typical visit would include feeding your pet, changing their water, taking them outside to use the toilet, and also playing with them for up to 30mins. I am able to brush your pet if required. For walks, I would typically do one long walk per day (45-60mins, depending on size and energy of dog), and up to 2 more shorter walks per day (around 30mins).

Cats: I am happy to care for all cats, including those with medical problems. Due to having 2 cats of my own, I am unable to care for cats in my house, though I am able to provide visits or overnight/live in care at your house. Services can be provided at any time of day. A typical visit would include feeding your pet, changing their water, and engaging with them for up to 30mins as they allow. I can brush your cat if this is required.

Small mammals and reptiles: Any pet kept inside an enclosue I am able to keep at my house. I have 2 cats at home, who would always be in a different room. I live in a non-smoking house. If you would prefer to keep the animal in your house and for me to provide visits, this is also possible, though it would be preferred for them to stay with me. I have previously cared for hamsters, rats, guinea pigs, gerbils and a bird at my place, and would love to be able to have a reptile stay with me in the future. There are plenty of plug points available in the room and I have a plug in timer available should your animal need a light cycle, heat, or similar. They will get a minimum of 15mins out of cage/handling time every day, unless they are not a holdable animal. If you wish for your animal to stay with me, I require them to be dropped off in most instances, as I do not have a car.

Other animals: If you have an animal not listed here, I'm probably happy to care for it, as I'm comfortable around almost all animals. Generally, if an animal is in an enclosure, you can refer to the "small mammals and reptiles" section for information, and if they are free roamed, you can refer to the "cats" section.
