Responsible, mature, young lady loves animals
| I have many years experience with dogs and cats as well as fish (not tropical-but I'd love to learn) .. however I stated 1 years experience as this would apply to reptiles. I understand that pets are members of the family, and should be treated as such. I don't have experience grooming but again, this is something I would love to learn.

I recently had the pleasure of hiring Paige for a cleaning job, and I couldn't be more impressed! They were punctual, professional, and left my place spotless. Every surface was thoroughly cleaned, and attention to detail was evident throughout. Paige went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, and I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a top-notch cleaner."

Pet's best friend
| Hi my name is Elena and I am an 18 year old who has recently completed studying my A levels. While overall my experience may be lacking, I previously took care of my neighbours puppy while she was away on holiday for a week, there I was expected to groom, walk, feed and play with him to ensure he remained happy while she was away, I found it highly enjoyable to spend time with him and, rather than viewing it as a chore, I was excited to come and visit him every day. If I am given the opportunity to take care of one of your precious pets, not only will I successfully complete any task that is given to me, I will go above and beyond to ensure they are happy in my care and you feel safe giving me such an Honorable responsibility.

The above & beyond sitter
| A secondary school teacher who lives in Laindon, Basildon and works in Dagenham. Being a caring person is part of my personality, from my career choice as a teacher, to my own pet Prince (who certainly acts/is treated like one). I’m that person who will try and stroke every cat in the street and if I’m with anyone continuously tell said person about how cute the cats eyes, paws, tails, colouring is (even though they are with me and can see anyways - I just get wayyyy too excited!). I owned rabbits, rats, hamsters etc. (willing to sit more than one type of animal) Will sit longer than I’m supposed to playing and chilling with the cat.. if your cat wants to spend an hour chasing a stick toy then I’m your girl! If you cat wants belly rubs I will provide this service with the risk of having some scratch marks by the end of it (My cat does this so I’m used to it). If you need me to remove the “present” that your cat has brought home I’m your girl (Prince loves a live mouse). If they give me the eyes then I cannot promise I will tell them “just one more treat then”.
