About Me/ Company

I am a reliable and trustworthy lady dedicated to providing excellent care when looking after pets, usually whilst house-sitting. When I became semi-retired I decided to take a long trip to visit my daughter in New Zealand, where I started to house and pet-sit... and I thoroughly enjoyed it! When I came back to the UK I decided to start my own business, safe ‘n secure. I am interested in expanding my business to walking and caring for dogs too.

With 16 years’ experience of caring for my own dogs and cats I have an understanding of how important the love and attention animals need. I would love to assist you by walking and spending time with your dog(s).

Other Services

Many pet owners decide to not put their dogs and cats into kennels/catteries, instead having their house looked after while the pets stay in familiar surroundings. I am available for house-sitting which can be a real ease of mind whilst you cannot be at home with your pets, whether it be for a day or a break away.
