I have been a pet owner for countless years, having had cats, dogs, hamsters, gerbils, rabbits, a chinchilla, fish, stick insects, and currently axylotls. I simply adore animals.

My black Labrador, Shadow, was my inspiration for setting up my business. She was diagnosed with diabetes at the age of 12 years, becoming visually impaired 6 months later, and as she aged, she struggled with mobility due to arthritis. In her final years, she required regular medication and a great deal of care.

Leaving her alone, was a constant worry, even for short periods. I knew there would be other people out there in the same predicament we had been in, and so, after her passing, I decided to set up ShadowMe in her honour. 

I had studied Animal Care at Grimsby College years earlier, but I decided to update and improve my knowledge before taking on any clients. I completed my Diploma in Complete Animal Care in 2019, followed by a Diploma in Canine Myotherapy in 2020, and I have also studied a variety of other animal related subjects along the way. Most recently I have completed a Diploma in Zoopharmacognosy, and I am currently a student practitioner of Tellington T-touch.

I have a particular soft spot for senior dogs and cats, but I have the time and affection to spare for any pets that use my services, and you can leave them in my care with confidence. 

I know how special they are to you, so, in return, I provide a special service to them..... I'm good like that.
