Hiiii :)

My full name is Ruvarashe but I like to be called Ru.

I am responsible, organised and bubbly!

I have always loved working with children from babysitting family to doing charity for Skylark Children’s ward to then working for Rock Up hosting children’s parties.

I am currently studying my Masters Degree in Project Management and looking for a part time job that I will enjoy and can work around my studies.

I enjoy baking, cooking and all things creative, I even help my mum ( who works as a social carer for children with autism) to plan activities for the children that aren’t just looking at a screen. With my university experience I am also able to help with some learning activities as well and keeping them fun so the children learn and enjoy.

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Pet Sitter

Follow these handy tips for hiring a pet sitter to ensure your furry family members are safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away.

1. Check Experience

Ask how long they’ve been pet sitting and what types of pets they’ve cared for. Experience with your specific type or breed is a big plus.

2. Verify Credentials

Look for pet CPR/first aid certification, pet care training, or memberships in professional pet-sitting associations.

3. Ask for References

Speak with past clients to confirm reliability, trustworthiness, and quality of care.

4. Meet in Person

Schedule a meet-and-greet to see how your pet reacts to the sitter and ensure a comfortable connection.

5. Discuss Duties Clearly

Define whether they’ll walk, feed, administer medication, groom, or provide other services. Be specific about expectations.

6. Check Availability

Ensure the sitter can meet your schedule, including holidays, weekends, or overnight needs.

7. Understand Rates & Payment

Clarify fees, overtime charges, and any additional costs (like travel, supplies, or emergency care).

8. Review Emergency Plans

Ask how they handle medical issues, accidents, or other emergencies, including access to your vet.

9. Communication Style

Confirm how often and in what form they’ll provide updates—texts, photos, or reports.

10. Start with a Trial

Consider a short test visit or day before leaving for an extended period to see how your pet responds and assess the sitter’s reliability.
