Hi, I'm Aster! 🐾

Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember.
I'm currently a full-time veterinary technician and pet parent to one dog and two rabbits, all of whom I care for independently. Over the years, I've also owned hamsters and rats, fostered rabbits and hamsters, and pet sat dogs, rabbits, birds and small mammals for friends and family.

Working in a veterinary clinic has taught me that every pet is different. Some are confident and outgoing, while others need a little more patience and understanding. Whether your pet is shy, anxious, elderly or reactive, I'll always work at their pace to ensure they feel safe and comfortable.
Your pet won't just be "checked on", they'll be cared for as if they were my own.

My experience includes:
🐾 Full-time veterinary technician
🐾 Administering oral medications
🐾 Basic nursing care and health monitoring
🐾 Caring for senior pets
🐾 Handling nervous, shy or mildly reactive animals
🐾 Recognising early signs of illness and knowing when veterinary attention may be needed

Whether you're away for work, travelling or simply need an extra helping hand, you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in experienced and caring hands.

🏡 Home Visits

Unfortunately, I'm unable to board pets in my own home, so I provide visits to your home instead.

Each visit lasts approximately 45–60 minutes and can include:
✔ Feeding and refreshing water
✔ Dog walks
✔ Playtime and enrichment
✔ Cleaning litter trays, cages or enclosures
✔ Basic grooming if required
✔ Oral medication administration
✔ Plenty of companionship and cuddles (if your pet enjoys them!)

I'm also happy to:
🌱 Water plants
📦 Bring parcels inside
📷 Send regular photo and video updates so you know how your pet is doing.

Typical visit windows
Morning: 6:00–8:00 AM
Evening: 9:30 PM onwards
(Visit times may vary slightly depending on location and my work schedule, but I'll always communicate with you in advance.)

🐶 Tuesday Dog Daycare

Available on Tuesdays only.

Your dog will enjoy a calm, structured day with plenty of supervision.

Typical schedule:
🐾 Morning walk
🍽 Breakfast (if required)
😴 Rest time
🧩 Enrichment activities
🚶 Afternoon potty walk (if needed)
🚶 Evening walk

Dogs will always be supervised.
Depending on your dog's temperament and your preferences, they may enjoy structured play or parallel walks with my resident dog. Dogs can also be kept separate throughout the day if preferred.
Rest periods are always respected, particularly after meals.

Why choose me?
As both a veterinary technician and experienced pet owner, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust.

I don't just feed and walk pets, I pay close attention to their behaviour, appetite and overall well-being while you're away.

My goal is simple:
To make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable and loved until you're home again.
If you have any questions or your pet has specific care requirements, feel free to send me a message. I'd love to chat and see how I can help.
