I have always had a passion for animals and had a whole menagerie of pets as a child, including rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, rats, budgies, canaries and gecko’s so when it came to deciding on a career it was an easy choice to go to university to study animal care. I have lived and worked with animals all my life and understand exactly how worrying it can be to leave your pets in the care of someone inexperienced or under-qualified.

​

Alongside my BSc (Hons) in Animal Management I also hold pet first aid certificates and a UKOC qualification level two in Exotic Animal Care. I have studied animal behaviour and psychology (specialising in dogs) and have work experience including veterinary practices, boarding cattery & kennels, caring for Big Cats with the Wildlife Heritage Foundation and many years of taking care of a whole range of pets in the Harrogate area running my own business.

 

I am, of course,  fully insured and DBS checks and can provide a host of references from the people who trust me to go into their homes and care for their pets every single day.
