About Me

Friendly Heaton Mersey based lecturer who grew up on a farm with multiple cats

I am a Medical Science lecturer working at the University of Central Lancashire and love animals. For years I wanted to be a vet and have had lots of experience working on farms, in vets practices and even at a zoo! During my PhD at the University of Manchester I worked as a teaching assistant on an undergraduate field trip to the South African bush where we studied animal behaviour, observing everything from big cats to dung beetles to giraffes.

I grew up on a farm in Devon and always had cats, dogs, and other animals, so I am very happy with all aspects of animal care. Because of this, I take a very practical approach to looking after animals (whilst always being on standby for a cat cuddle) and am confident in handling emergency situations. I have also looked after friends pets recently.

I can walk, drive, or cycle to your home to look after your pets and look forward to meeting you.

I’ve always been around cats and other animals at home so am very comfortable with them.

Having grown up on a farm I am also comfortable with some basic healthcare requirements (e.g. oral and topical medications) and can discuss this with you if needed.

    Harry turned up twice a day, he was very reliable and I felt confident knowing that my cats were in safe hands whilst I was away.

    Once again, Harry was great looking after Kitty Kauto. Nice updates while we were away and Harry made it every day though the adverse weather to get to Kauto. Thank you.

    Harry was fantastic again! We didn't give a lot of notice and he was very flexible with dates and times. Cats seemed to be very happy when we got back. Harry even helped out with the bins on collection day (which we would have forgot). We wouldn't hesitate to book again.

    Harry was great looking after kitty Kauto. She's can be a typically distant cat at the best of times, let alone when we're away, but Harry persisted and she really warmed to him! She was letting him stroke her and feed her by hand! Thanks Harry

    Harry was fantastic. It was our first time using him and he took the time to come over and meet us and the cats and was very friendly and down to earth and asked all the right questions. The cats were well looked after and we received updates and cheeky photo's which was lovely. I would have no hesitation to use Harry again. Rebecca & George

    Harry is an absolutely fantastic cat sitter. It was the first time he stayed with my three cats, everyone was relaxed and happy when we got back, and he even succeeded to overcome my youngest cat's fear of strangers which isn't am easy task!
