Founder of Friends of Pets
Serena
Welcome to Friends of Pets! My name is Serena and my passion for pets and animals accompanied me all my life. I know how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pets in your absence. That's why I want to tell you more about my experience!
Since childhood, I’ve had the joy of caring for a variety of pets, including dogs of all sizes, hamsters, cats, and my beloved African grey parrot, Arthur. Arthur has been part of my family for more than 20 years and, though he now lives in Italy with my family, he continues to be the most chatty and affectionate member of the household!
In addition to my personal experience, I’ve also worked in a pet shop where I gained hands-on knowledge in caring for a wide range of animals, including fish, birds, reptiles (yes, even snakes!), rodents, and other small animals. My dedication to providing excellent pet care led me to earn a CPD-certified Pet Sitting and Dog Walking diploma, ensuring that your pets are in safe and capable hands.
Since 2021, I’ve been offering pet-sitting services in Cambridge as I understand the peace of mind that comes from knowing your pets are receiving the best care while you're away. During my visits, I treat each pet like they’re part of my own family, making sure they’re happy, healthy, and have the best standard of care until your return.

Freya
Hi! My name is Freya, and I have had a passion for animals ever since I can remember.
I grew up in the south-west surrounded by dog walks on the beach, long walks along the coast path, and my grandmother who was an avid dog trainer. I have 3 years of dog walking experience back home, with dogs of all shapes and sizes, and I am so excited to be continuing my journey in Longstanton! I am always keen to foster an individual and personalised environment in my dog walks, and strive for each dog to get the most out of each experience.
I know how important socialisation is for our beloved pets, and how much comfort having a pet-sitter can bring them. Previously, I've worked with a local shelter fostering under-socialised cats, giving them the love and support they need to thrive in their forever homes. Recently, my partner and I have adopted two cats of our own (Leo and Luna) whom we adore.
Outside of my love for animals I love being active, whether that's training at the gym, or running in the bug hunter waters weekly park run. I am fully insured for dog walks, pet sitting and overnight/extended pet sitting stays
