About

Hello, I’m Jayne — a Bournemouth pet sitter with a veterinary heart.

I’ve spent most of my working life in and around veterinary practice. Now I offer something I think Dorset pet owners deserve: calm, qualified, in-home pet sitting from someone who genuinely understands animals.

I trained in veterinary science (BVSc) and worked clinically for many years. That background means I’m completely at ease handling medication, monitoring elderly or chronic pets, and noticing the small signals other sitters might miss.

How I look after your animals

Calm, careful and unhurried

Pets pick up on energy. I keep visits gentle, predictable and quietly attentive — the way your animals already know things should feel.

Clinically observant

Years in veterinary practice mean I spot subtle changes early — appetite, gait, breathing, behaviour — and act sensibly when something isn’t right.

Honest and reliable

Clear updates, photos with every visit and straight talk if anything needs your attention. No surprises when you get home.
