Experience with animals and own pets
I've been around pets for basically as long as I can remember! I grew up surrounded by an assortment of dogs, to the extent that it was difficult to get studying done because all I found myself doing was playing with them!
It would seem that my family and I simply cannot get enough when it comes to pets - we've owned dogs, 2 bearded dragons, 4 hamsters, 8 rats, copious fish as well as many temporary residents that got injured in our garden and needed some TLC.
I'm a firm believer that pet friends are no different to people friends because we spend so much time with them and depend on many for love and support through difficult times.
I love animals of all shapes and sizes and will jump at the opportunity to meet yours!

Connor was wonderful.
He sent me very detailed updates with pics of Teddy on a regular basis and spent lots of time playing with Teddy.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Connor to any StudentCo clients as Teddy was so happy with him.

Connor went above and beyond looking after my 2 dogs (who are high maintenance).
He didn't just make sure thier basic needs were met, he actually got to know them and their unique personalities which shows how much time he actually spent with them.
The messages I got while I was away showed me this and gave me a huge level of comfort.

Connor became my pets best friend and they all wanted to sleep in his room when we returned.
He did well with Dakota who started going blind right before we left and is now completely blind.
Well done Connor!
You were an absolute blessing.

Connor has been very kind and professional and immediately established a connection with Nestore. When I came back, after one week, Nestore appeared happy and energetic as always, and perhaps even improved his 4-months old puppy manners. Well done Connor!

This is the second time Connor has stayed over with Teddy and I am very comfortable with him.
Teddy is very spoilt and does not always take to people, he loves Connor.
Thanks very much for providing such a wonderful service.
