About Lucy
I love spending time in nature, whether it be a stroll along the seafront or a walk through the woods. I also enjoy the simple pleasures of life, such as cooking, reading and watching a movie. When all of the above can be done with a cat or dog as a companion, then all the better!

I love spending time in nature, whether it be a stroll along the seafront or a walk through the woods. I also enjoy the simple pleasures of life, such as cooking, reading and watching a movie. When all of the above can be done with a cat or dog as a companion, then all the better!
I work as an Executive Assistant, so have excellent organisation skills and attention to detail, which are attributes that fit well with being a house-sitter.
Why I want to house sit
I think it is the perfect way to combine my love of animals with my passion for travel. It's also lovely to think I can give something back by looking after someone's pets. As a cat-owner myself I know how disruptive it can feel to a pet when their owner is away, so would love to ease things for both pet and owner!
My experience
I have been a cat-owner since the age of six, and also helped looked after friends' dogs.
I have been a house-sitter for friends and family on a few occasions, which has been an enjoyable experience, so I love the idea of offering my house-sitting services to others.
Like many, I believe that a pet can really make a home a home, so staying somewhere and looking after the resident pet(s) seems like a lovely bonus to exploring a new place.
My god-daughter has recently been given a hamster for her birthday, so I am now fully trained in all things relating to looking after hamsters; though perhaps the complex mazes she constructs are a rather niche speciality that most hamster-owners will not require... ;-0

Lucy was a great house sitter. My cat was well and happy on my return and the house was clean and tidy. Lucy stayed in touch with me while I was away and I can wholeheartedly recommend her as a trusted house and pet sitter.

I knew that my two cats were in safe hands when I left them in Lucy's care in my home while I was away: her interest in their wellbeing was clear. Handovers at the start and end of her house/pet sitting were straightforward and stress free. I would have no hesitation in using Lucy again to keep my home and cats well looked after.

Lucy was amazing at looking after my darling Tilly-cat. She anticipated all my needs and made me feel very safe at leaving my beloved feline with her. What a treasure to have such a trustworthy and conscientious person in my home and loving my pet. THANK YOU!
