About Me/ Company
Plymouth Pet Sitters forms part of the GB Pet Sitters franchise, established in 2001 to provide a variety of professional and fully insured pet care services at local prices. Operating in 34 UK locations and servicing over 10,000 satisfied customers, GB Pet Sitters are fastly becoming the trusted name for pet care in the UK.
Managed by animal enthusiast Kirsty Maidment, Plymouth Pet Sitters are able to demonstrate their commitment to first rate pet care via a rapidly growing pet sitting client base.
Plymouth Pet Sitters are well aware of the difficulties associated with combining full-time work (including long or unusual hours), holidays, short breaks or illness with a caring and professional solution for your pets. Busy work schedules can leave a pet on their own for considerable periods of the day, without the necessary food, water replenishment, exercise, companionship and opportunity to go to the toilet.
Areas Covered: All areas of Plymouth, including the outlying areas of Roborough, Derriford, Plymstock, Wembury, Plympton and Ivybridge.
Choose from a variety of customised services to ensure your pet care essentials are carried out effectively for you. These include Plymouth Dog Walking, including 1-to-1 and group socialisation; Plymouth Cat Sitting and Plymouth Small Animal Care, keeping the pets in their own home and routine and avoiding the need to use larger pet boarding facilities.
Our Plymouth Dog Boarding service offers a kinder alternative to kennels - your dog stays with us or one of our experienced host families and is cared for, walked, fed and given all the attention he/she needs whilst you are on holiday. Reasons to choose Plymouth Pet Sitters:

Previous Experience
Kirsty has been an animal lover her entire life being brought up with animals since she was a baby. She has owned a wide variety of animals over the years including dogs, cats, ponies, horses, rats, mice, sheep and even snails. She has 25 years experience in owning and competing with horses and ponies (showing, show jumping, cross country and long distance riding), and even went to the USA to teach horse riding to Girl Scouts. She sadly lost her best friend Oliver at the end of 2010, he was a 32 year old Appaloosa x TB who she had owned for over 18 years, as well as other horses and ponies before him and along the way. Her stable management is excellent, and she really does have a passion for giving horses and ponies the best care possible.
Kirsty recently was running her own business as a freelance PA, but after taking a break to look after the children she was looking for a new business oppportunity and her love of animals brought her to become the franchisee for Plymouth Pet Sitters. She has worked in the past in both hospitality and retail, which although she enjoys her passion is working with animals. Kirsty is currently a volunteer with Hospital Radio Plymouth.
She has two cats at home; Jack, who came from the dogs and cats home in 2002, and Splodge who is a rather nutty and very friendly little female cat born in 2009. Although she doesn't currently own a dog she has had many over the years including German Shepherds, a Rottweiler, a Border Collie and a Bullmastiff, so she has a wide variety of experience with dogs, even with one of her dogs having a litter of puppies. Kirsty enjoys going out on interesting walks, and likes to discover new places to go.
Kirsty is police checked and fully insured. She will offer the best care for your pet, as if it was one of her own.
