Pet check-in visits in Bath and surrounding areas

Your pet stays home. I come to them. Feeding, fresh water, a welfare check, and a photo so you know they're fine.

Your pet stays home. I come to them.

Going away for a holiday, a work trip, or even just a long day? Your pet doesn't have to go to a kennel or a cattery. I'll visit your home, feed them, check on them, top up their water, and send you a photo so you know they're doing well.

Check-in visits work for dogs, cats, and small pets. They're a low-stress alternative to boarding, especially for animals who are happiest in their own environment.

Each visit lasts around 30 minutes. I follow your routine as closely as possible so your pet barely notices you're gone.

What's included in every visit

  • Feeding according to your instructions
  • Fresh water
  • A welfare check on your pet
  • A comfort check on your home (heating, security, post)
  • Litter tray or garden toilet break
  • Medication administration if needed
  • A photo and message sent to you after every visit
  • Short play or companionship time

Who is this for?

Holiday cover

Going away for a few days or a couple of weeks? I'll visit daily (or twice daily) to keep your pet fed, watered, and comfortable while you're gone.

Work trips

Away overnight or for a few days with work? Your pet stays in their own home with regular visits rather than the disruption of boarding.

Long days at the office

If you're out from early morning to late evening, a midday check-in means your dog gets a toilet break and some company during the day.

Elderly or anxious pets

Some pets don't cope well with change. A check-in visit lets them stay in familiar surroundings with minimal disruption to their routine.

How it works

Get in touch

Contact me with the dates you need covered and any details about your pet. I'll let you know if I'm available.

Visits begin

I visit at the agreed times. After each visit, you receive a photo and a message letting you know how your pet is doing.

Key return

When you're home, I return any keys. If you'd like me to keep a spare for future visits, that's fine too.
