Experience with animals and own pets
I've been very lucky to have grown up in a household that has had many different animals. We have owned dogs of varying sizes, cats, birds (including chickens!), and gerbils. Currently I have my three lively Chinese Shar Pei’s (Winston, Jasmine, and Tiger Lily), and my kitten Bella.
I volunteer at the Centurion SPCA, and love spending time with all the animals there. I have experience looking after the pets (both big and small) of friends and family.

Sian is a wonderful human and a great pet sitter!
My babies absolutely loved her, even seemed like they miss her!
She was wonderful at the meet and greet and great with feedback and taking care of my babies.
I know my furkids are a handful sometimes but she handled them like a boss and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend StudentCo to anyone thanks to her!

Sian was an angel.
2 of my dogs are on medications and when we returned they were in tip top shape.
She kept me updated at all times and photos everyday.
She went out of her way to ensure my animals were comfortable.
She is surely an asset to be treasured.

We have used Sian on numerous occasions when we needed fursitting services and she is great with our dogs! They are always so happy to see her. StudentCo/Sian has changed our lives. Previously we had great difficulty going anywhere due to our Boxer barking when left alone, and now we can actually attend social functions. Thanks StudentCo and Sian, you are great!My name:

Just a suggestion - if you could perhaps have a questionnaire for Fursitting since you have to choose the "Stay-over" option for fursitting but it isn't actually a Stay-Over in the true sense. Some of the questions like "While I was away, my Petsitter kept in daily contact....." is actually then not applicable for review for Fursitting purposes. Thanks again for friendly and good service!Date of review:
