Tom is on the front page of our 2019 Calender. How cool would it be to adopt that gorgeous kitten.

Pssss Tom might be upset as he looks like a she on the Calender. It is amazing how he has lost his white fur and become a jet black young handsome boy

Another pssss if you want to buy a 2019 Calender then please email fundraisingcatrescue@gmsil.com and we can sort you out.

Hello neighbours!

Many people these days find themselves just too busy to get their dogs out for the regular walks they require, or keep on top of those forever-growing gardens. This is where I can come along and help you out!

I am an experienced dog owner myself, and have also studied veterinary nursing, so you know your beloved pet will be in safe, responsible hands. Last year I worked my way around Europe helping out in gardens ranging from little private courtyards through to landscape designing a rural French wedding venue.

During my travels I spent 2 weeks living and working at an amazing dog boarding facility in Switzerland, walking the dogs and tending to their large section. The family who ran the facility have provided a reference letter I can share with you.

Price by negotiation depending on work required and hours. Call or message me for a chat to see if I am the right person for your pooch or garden needs :)

Cheers,
Emma
