Small Animal Care

At Purrs at Home, our love for animals extends far beyond purrs and wagging tails. We provide dedicated, bespoke care for a wide range of small animals — including rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, birds, fish, reptiles, chickens, and more. Every visit is thoughtfully tailored to each species’ individual needs, ensuring they remain comfortable, safe, and well cared for in the familiarity of their own home.

What Our Visits Can Include
We adapt our approach to suit the unique requirements of your small companion. Our experienced sitters are confident and capable in providing:

• Full enclosure cleaning and spot cleaning to maintain a fresh, hygienic environment.

• Food and water replenishment — including handling of specialised diets or live food where required.

• Handling, enrichment, and exercise time, tailored to each animal’s temperament and routine.

• Medication administration, including the ability to provide injections when necessary.

• Aquarium maintenance for cold-water, tropical, and marine setups — including water testing, monitoring levels, and routine care for tanks of all sizes.

Every visit is carried out with care, precision, and respect for each animal’s natural behaviours and comfort level.
