| I'm a 23 year old girl who would like to take care of your pet. I do not have previous experience of pet sitter however I do have knowledge and experience of the pets, as I had pets before at my family home all the time, for example; dogs, cats, snakes, ferrets, hamsters and spiders. I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. Provide safe, nurturing care for a wide range of animals. Consistency and problem-solving to ensure pets receive the right food and medications (If required). I do not have any pets apart from my tarantula.

If it's not too far then there's not a problem. I live in Ilkeston. I will take care of your pet even if it's vaccinated or not. All animals are welcome.

| Hi, I’m Jordan! I studied Animal Care and hold a certificate in the subject. I am always looking for new, exciting courses to do to broaden my knowledge in the area too. I am DBS checked and hold a full driving license with business insurance should I need to transport your fur babies. Currently I am pet sitting around job and in my free time so please don’t hesitate to enquire about dates and times as I am quite flexible. Upon meeting you I will discuss what your house rules are, what the needs of your fur babies are and any additional information you’ll think I need to give them the best care possible while you’re away. Most importantly, I’ll make sure they have the absolute best time in your absence! It would be great if you could let me know about any special requirements your dog/cat would need/want while I am caring for them so I am able to give them the best, personalised care I am able to. I am a very house proud person so rest assured your home will be taken care of just as much as your pet while you’re away! I understand how great it feels to come home to a clean home so I like to extend that feeling out to everyone I have the pleasure of working with.
