Pet sitting and pet care with Helen Motteram (primary carer) and Tristan Motteram
Helen Motteram primarily does the day and night stays on her own, Tristan will be available for pet visits and overnight only when Helen is not available, he also does dog walking if needed.
We both run a rescue, so understand that the needs and safety of your pets are a priority. We have had extensive experience with small animals, birds, cats and dogs, and running our own rescue have come across more exotic pets. A meet and greet is arranged free of charge, before any sits/pet visits commence, this is to get to know you and your pets and their needs. We offer pet sitting in Cheltenham and Gloucester and are based in Charlton kings.
