Pet visit questions

Looking for pet visits in Studley? I also cover Alcester, Redditch and surrounding villages. See the areas I cover.

Which pets do you care for?

I care for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, mice, gerbils, chinchillas, fish, chickens, game birds, other birds, reptiles and livestock. Tell me about your pet so I can confirm the care they need.

Is a meet and greet required?

Yes. We need to arrange a free meet and greet before your pet's first visit so I can meet them and understand their care needs.

What happens at the free meet and greet?

I'll meet you and your pet, learn about their routine, and talk through feeding, access and any care instructions before you book.

What can a pet visit include?

Visits can include feeding, fresh water, litter tray care, playtime and plenty of attention. We'll agree what your pet needs at the meet and greet.

What happens during a dog visit?

I can refresh water, give food if needed, check your dog is well, and spend time playing or keeping them company. A visit can also include a garden toilet break or a short walk, and I'll clear up any accidents before leaving.

Can I book more than one visit a day?

Yes. You can arrange multiple visits in a day, including an early morning or late-night check. Tell me the times your dog needs and I'll confirm availability.

Why choose visits over a cattery?

Some cats find travel and catteries stressful. Visits let your cat stay in familiar surroundings and keep to their usual routine, with care and company at home.

Will my cat be let outside?

Cats are kept indoors during visits unless we agree otherwise at the free meet and greet. If you'd like your cat to go outside, please read the terms and conditions so you understand the risks.

Can you clean out cages or enclosures?

Yes. A weekly clean-out can be arranged in a 30-minute visit. Fish tanks are not included.

Can you give my pet medication?

Tell me what your pet needs and share their instructions at the meet and greet so I can confirm how I can help.

Will I get updates while I'm away?

Yes. I'll send photos and updates so you can see how your pet is doing.
