About Marina
Hello,

Your animals will be safe and cared for while you are away as I love cats and other small animals and I am also a trained veterinary nurse.

I am so looking forward to caring for your fur babies in the comfort of their home I give lots of love and attention or simply let them be (as we know, some animals just prefer their own space!).

While I specialise in cats, I am also confident caring for reptiles, rodents, rabbits, fish, amphibians and birds.

As a veterinary nurse (Advanced Certificate Veterinary Nursing) I am able to keep an eye out for any health conditions (e.g. if your cat has a recurring UTI) and administer medications.

Please do get in touch to talk about the particular needs of your pet.

*References available - see photos for references (from another pet-sitting site).

*A little about me: Animals are in my blood. I grew up the daughter of a veterinarian, so I have cleaned countless kennels and patted and talked to countless animals. Yes, I talk to them... don’t you? After veterinary nursing in 1999, I extended my studies to social work 2000-2004. I currently work as a social worker in the disability sector.

Marina was fabulous. She cared for our slightly anxious Osky as if he were her own cat. She catered to his special diet, medications, & left our house more tidy than when she'd arrived! Highly recommend Marina

Marina was caring & attentive to our two cats. She sent photos & ensured she kept us up to date on how they were eating & responding to her care. I would recommend Marina to anyone who wants their fur babies to have excellent care while they are away.
