About Stella

I have two 8-year-old British Shorthair cats who once had five adorable kittens. I looked after the kittens from birth until they were five months old. I also worked at a dog grooming salon for over a year. While I wasn’t a groomer, I worked at the front desk and spent lots of time with the dogs — welcoming them, keeping the them comfortable before and after grooming, looking after them while they waited for their owners, and helping brush their coats.

Questions Stella has answered

What do you need to know about a pet before accepting a booking?

I’d love to know about your pet’s age, personality, daily routine, feeding schedule, any medical needs or allergies, and anything they particularly like or dislike. For dogs, I’d also like to know how they behave around other dogs and people.

How much time will you actually spend with my pet each visit?

I’ll spend around 30–60 minutes with your pet each visit, depending on their needs. I’ll make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, and get plenty of playtime, cuddles and attention. I genuinely just love being around cats and dogs, which is the main reason I’m doing pet sitting — not for the money! I’m happy to keep my rates affordable and spend some quality time with your furry friend. 🐾

What happens if my pet gets sick or hurt while with you?

I’ll contact you immediately and follow your instructions. If it’s urgent, I’ll contact your preferred vet or the nearest emergency vet and make sure your pet gets the care they need as quickly as possible.
