Carers
Fiona has extensive experience in the animal care field. She has volunteered at the RSPCA and also fosters dogs and cats for local rescues. Fiona is particularly interested in the psychology and behaviour of pets. She loves being able to win over particularly nervous pets and has been nicknamed “the cat whisperer” by Petcarers owner Sharon. Fiona has a gorgeous and cheeky dog, Freya (pictured), and two foster-fail cats – Penelope, Tabitha and Shadow. A 'foster-fail' is what happens when you were supposed to give the cat back after fostering but decided to keep it!
Fiona has completed her Pet First Aid Certificate.
