Your local artist and cat sitter!

Hi! I'm Verity!

I'm a Canadian living in Thornbury, and have been in the UK for 13 years now. I work fulltime in the film industry as a puppet maker and sculptor. I live with my husband and two 7-year old cats, Banjo and Ori, who are Siamese/British Shorthair brothers.

My cats are super cuddly and friendly, and I'd love to extend the care towards your pets when you are away. I've been around animals all my life, and I'm experienced with not only cats, but small rodents, rabbits, snakes and other reptiles, and fish. Although I've not personally kept any as pets, birds are my favourite creatures and I'd be more than happy to look after your feathered friends too!

I have an up-to-date DBS check. You can see more about my artwork on my social media links!

I would hate to leave my cats on their own, so I know the feeling! I would love to play with your cats, give treats (when appropriate!), and make sure they get a good meal (and finish with a clean litter tray and bowl).

I'm also happy to give medicine (although not injections) as I have had experience with my own cat. If you want your cat to be brushed or groomed, just let me know.

I'm also happy to send you updates and photos, so you know your kitty is being well looked after (and you might just miss them while you're away!).

I'd love to meet up for a coffee before hand so you can get to know me. I completely understand that you'd want to know who you're leaving your cats with while you are away:)

I'm a considerate and responsible person, so if you need a house sitter as well, I'd be more than happy to make sure everything is okay for you.
