Downham Pet Support

Downham Pet Support Pet sitting, dog walking, cat and small animal visits & animal behaviour advice. Services tailored to owners needs.

I have an Animal Behaviour Degree, DBS and am fully insured. Please note,I do not offer home boarding or overnight stays in owners' homes. I am a qualified animal behaviourist and have a Diploma in Animal Management and a Degree in Applied Animal Behaviour. I have volunteered for two national animal charities for around 4 years which has given me a wealth of experience in working with a diverse ra

nge of cats and dogs. I have spent a lot of time with nervous animals and animals with potential behavioural problems, helping them become less fearful and anxious about various triggers and situations. I am incredibly passionate about animal welfare and putting the needs of every individual animal first which is why I started a pet support service. I believe it's important for animals to be able to stay in their own homes when owners are away as it's potentially less stressful for them than having to go to a cattery or kennel. I am very flexible, I am also available at short notice and recognise that all owners have specific and individual preferences and requirements for their pets which is why I tailor all my services in accordance with what is best for the pet and their owner.

I look after many ex cats and this afternoon I started daily pop in visits for one of them, lovely Tiki.

I hadn't seen her for ages but it was like just picking up where we left off, tons of purring, lolling on her back for fuss and most importantly, her lickelix treat!

I was with one of my besties today, lovely Woody.

His owners calls me is girlfriend. I love him.

He is always in his element in the water!

Love you little man ❤️

**Cattery Versus Keeping your cats at home with a pet sitter popping in.**

Often, when new cat owners get in touch, they've never heard of a service where your cat(s) can stay at home with one or twice daily pop in visits.

Cats are creatures of habit and routine and are often far less stressed staying in their familiar home environment sticking to their usual routine.

The services I offer for cat visits are all individually tailored to each cats' requirements. Some owners prefer the cats to stay indoors, some prefer them to roam during the day but be kept in at night.

I offer a whole variety of packages for cats to keep them happy, relaxed and enriched in their own homes.

As many existing cat clients know, I always send video and photo updates via WhatsApp during each visit so you can see how happy your cats(s) are..owners' say it gives great peace of mind. Especially if they're abroad for long periods!

I provide complimentary puzzle feeders, homegrown and homemade catnip pouches, plenty of fuss, attention, treats and care.

Please do consider this as an alternative to a cattery, your cats will thank you for it!

I look after cats where their owners are away for 2 weeks plus and the cats are so happy seeing me twice daily as they get to stick to their usual routine and are so relaxed.

I always offer a free meet and greet so please get in touch if you feel I can help.

Please see photos attached of existing cats clients enjoying their time with me staying in their own homes whilst their owners are away! See how content the cats look? ❤️

**Mid-week round up**

I've continued my twice daily pop in visits on Carlton, Elise, Wallace, Daisy and Missy who've all had tons of fuss and have been so relaxed staying in their own home environments.

We did a pop in on some besties, Toby and Bill earlier in the week on Monday evening which was so much fun.

Due to the heat earlier this week, Reggie, Monty, Rex and Obi and Darcy just had garden visits which was full of play, fuss, water and shade.

Ronnie, Lucie and Bailey, Woody, Elsie and Marvin had some earlier walks before it got too hot.

I did a brief evening pop in visit on little Max who I've not seen for ages so that was super lovely!

I've also had delivery of the largest amount of catnip I've ever seen so slowly working through the cutting and drying process. Currently all fingers intact but 3 blisters in! 😁🤦‍♀️ ( I call it dedication, Jake calls it a "frenzy") 😂

Hope everyone's having a lovely week so far.

Lots of love to you all and your pets,

Natalka

It doesn't matter whether you're a cat, dog, rabbit or guinea pig or any other animal client.

All pets under the care of us here at Downham Pet Support always get royalty treatment!

Thats a wrap!

I continued doing my twice daily pop in visits on lovely Missy and Daisy who have been super chilled.

We took Marvin, Ronnie, Lucie and Bailey for early morning walks before it got too hot!

We did afternoon garden visits for Woody and Dottie as it was too hot for walks.

We've been looking after Carlton, Elise, Adrian, Rocky, Hazelnut, Gingerbread and Monty this weekend.

I've also started doing pop in visits on the gorgeous Wallace for the next few days.

Its going to be a scorcher early this coming weeks so any dog walks will be garden pop in visits to keep your pets safe.

There's plenty of recipes online that you can make at home to make frozen treats for your dogs and put them in kongs, puzzle feeders or spread on licky mats. Its great physical and mental enrichment and will most importantly, help keep them cool!

Have a great week everyone.

Much love,

Natalka & Jake
