Your Pet’s New Best Friend: Loving, Reliable, and Experienced Pet Care
| Are you looking for someone who will treat your pet like family? My name’s Shreyas, and I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, and fish. I have two dogs, Teddy, a Shih Tzu I’ve raised since he was a puppy, and Tumbler, a rescue I nursed back to health. I’ve also rescued kittens, ensuring they were loved and cared for until they found their forever homes. I offer personalised pet care, including feeding, walking, playtime, grooming, and administering medication if needed. I can also provide overnight stays or extended care while you’re away. My goal is to keep your pet happy, comfortable, and well-loved, no matter their needs. Animals naturally warm to me, and I’m passionate about making them feel safe and cared for. If you’re looking for a dependable, friendly, and experienced pet carer, I’d love to hear from you. Let’s chat about how I can help your furry, feathery, or finned friend thrive!
