I am so extremely happy and proud to say that I have passed my course and am now a certificate holder in animal behaviour. I am so interested in behaviour and I think it is so important to consider it whenever we are dealing with any animal. I hope that I can use this qualification to share a load of information with pet parents to help their animals with behavioural issues, which in turn will help the animals to be happier, and hopefully help to build a lovely relationship between animal and parent.

With this I have decided to offer home visits to discuss behavioural issues you may have with your dog or cat.

These home visits will be up to 1 hour and will be £30. During this time we can discuss anything you like. I will ask you some information about the issue/s beforehand to prepare. After the visit I will write some notes about what was discussed and send them to you.

I must stress that this qualification does NOT make me a behaviourist, but has given me further knowledge alongside the knowledge I already have from almost 9 years in veterinary practice. Unfortunately, anyone can call themselves a behaviourist whether they have any qualifications or not! Please note, if I feel it is necessary, I may refer you to your vet or to a behaviourist. If I feel this is necessary I will give you guidance on how to find a suitably qualified behaviourist. I also will not be acting as a veterinary nurse during these visits, but am able to share my knowledge and advise you as best as I can. I will always use kind, reward based methods.

To book a visit, please download the zumi app and book me through there. Otherwise, please send me a facebook message.

Today me and Tommy met a gorgeous Poochon who we are going to be spending a few hours with a couple of times a month. He absolutely loved Tommy and is a very sweet little dog! We’re going to have a great time! 🐶

Initial meet and greets are free of charge and I feel they are important before I start caring for your pets, to ensure they are comfortable with me (and Tommy!) 🩷

The Kong Classic - an absolute life saver and my number 1 favourite dog toy/enrichment tool!

If your dog gets over excited, bored, sometimes needs a distraction or a bit of time out, if you give them plenty of physical exercise but they seem to need something more, I will always recommend one of these bad boys!!

They come in a variety of sizes and the colour determines how tough the rubber is. The black one is the strongest rubber and even Bear (who chews through absolutely every toy I give him within a matter of minutes) has never destroyed his black kong!

Bear absolutely LOVES his kongs, as you can probably see as he is cuddling 2 in this photo! I have used them since he was a very small puppy and they have helped so much. Bear gets very over excited and unfortunately has to be limited on his physical exercise due to joint problems and a tendon injury. Throughout his recovery his kongs have been really useful if he just gets a little bit over the top and needs to calm down a little, or needs some stimulation but cannot do physical exercise. He also gets very excited when we have visitors, and can get excited around the baby, so giving him a kong in his crate gives him mental stimulation while using a barrier method to keep him contained, without him getting upset or stressed.

My favourite thing to smear inside Bear’s kongs is a dog safe peanut butter as I have found it to last the longest. It is rather calorific though, so you do need to keep an eye on that, and possibly cut down some of their daily allowance of food to compensate for the calories. You can also soak and mash their own kibble and stuff that inside for a lower fat alternative. You could even do this as a way to feed them their meals. You can find lots more ideas online on what to stuff them with! You can freeze the kongs as well which makes it last even longer.

I could probably talk about kongs all day, maybe I should be a brand ambassador? 👀

Be aware that as much as I love kongs, you should supervise your dog while they have them because I have occasionally seen dogs that have been able to chew through them and swallow pieces!! Also they should not replace you spending time with your dog doing other mental enrichment such as training sessions. However I find them to be an extremely useful tool in the situations mentioned above.

Today I did a nail clip on a lovely elderly kitty, and spoke on the phone to an owner who is struggling with behavioural challenges with two of her dogs. So lovely to be seeing and speaking to clients again! I forgot to take a photo of the cat so here is a photo of Bear having a great time the other day!

I will be in Oundle at 2pm doing a nail clip if anyone in the area needs anything! 🥰

My darling Bear, happily choosing to sleep in his crate all night. The dogs have free roaming downstairs, but he often chooses to lie/sleep in his crate. Lola and Jake usually sleep on the sofa, but most nights Bear chooses his crate. Sometimes one of the little ones will curl up in there with him. The door is always open so they can choose when they go in and out. This makes it much easier when I need to ask Bear to go in there, because he doesn’t get distressed.

Crate training is something I can talk to you about on my advice phone calls. It is never too late to teach this, whether you have an 8 week old puppy or an 8 year old dog, I can help you teach your dog to enjoy their crate. Reward based methods always 💙

Good morning!

6 weeks ago I gave birth to the most beautiful baby boy! I am adjusting well to (human) mum life and loving it!

I am just putting the feelers out, and would like to see if there is any potential interest for a service that I could offer while I am at home.

I am considering offering phone calls in which I can discuss your pets and give advice on certain things. I should stress that although I am a qualified and Registered Veterinary Nurse, I will not be acting as a Veterinary Nurse when providing these services - I can share my knowledge, but the services will be non-clinical, and I may have to refer you to your vet if it is necessary, and I will always advise you to contact your vet if I have any concerns.

I can discuss subjects such as;
- Basic behaviour - I am currently studying towards a Nurses Certificate in Animal Behaviour (dogs and cats)
- Nutrition and weight management - I have a particular interest in helping animals become and maintain a healthy weight
- Arthritis management within the home and caring for senior pets
- Preparing your home for a new pet
- Oral hygiene
- Basic puppy training advice e.g. house training
- Any other questions you can think of - bearing in mind I cannot diagnose any illnesses, and if I think you need to see a vet I will always suggest it.

I would probably do this for a set cost for a set amount of time, e.g. £10 for 30 mins, and would be happy to discuss several subjects if they fit into the time allocated.

I would be very grateful if people could let me know whether it is something that would spark interest to see if it would be worth me looking in to!

Thank you in advance! 💙

2 weeks ago I did my final pet sitting job before I give birth, and what a lovely one to end on. A gorgeous Chi, two tortoises and a bearded dragon! I had a lovely weekend with them. Now to finish my last few weeks at my full time job and prepare for having a baby in 10 weeks time 🤯

My lovely little sister is keen to help out with a bit of pet sitting if anyone needs anything.

She is very similar to me, she’s reliable and trustworthy. She has just looked after my 3 babies for 4 nights and has done an absolutely amazing job even though my Bear has been quite poorly. I don’t trust many people with my dogs but I’ve felt very comfortable leaving them with her.

She is 20 and works from home a lot so is able to spend a lot of time with the animals.

Please pop me a message if you have any dates that you’d like a pet sitter!

I have just had the most lovely weekend looking after the gorgeous Rita & Ronnie. Rita reminds me of a mix between my Lola & Jake as an old lady, and Ronnie reminds me of a calmer version of Bear!

I am reluctant to say that other than the couple of bookings already secured, I won’t be taking any more pet sitting bookings now. This is due to my pregnancy progressing and also my little family just miss me too much when I’m gone, and the feeling is mutual!

I have been getting a lot of enquiries recently which has been amazing as the majority of them are from personal recommendations which I’m so grateful for! I do have some contacts so do let me know if you need someone and I can put you in touch.

Sadly this might be it for Lilly RVN Pet Services now that I’ll have a small child to look after, but who knows what the future holds!

Thank you soooo much to every amazing client who has supported me over the years!

Just finished 10 days of popping in to feed these two beauties. They’re both really comfortable with me now and love fuss and cuddles, but not as much as they love food 😻

Nice few days popping in to visit the gorgeous Skyla & Lexa again, and an overnight stay last night with Nyla & Bear 😍🥰
