About The Petsman - Animal Encounters

Welcome to Animal Encounters - the Petsman. Hi I'm the Petsman, bringing to you a great animal animal handling experience. We have a great selection of owls, reptiles, snakes, insects/bugs and of course the cute and fluffy..All the animals are my own personnel pets, looked after by me. They are friendly, love the attention and the gentle handling they receive. So what's it all about? We offer an hour to all day sessions which will need to be booked in advance. We welcome bookings from, school's, children's party's, residential care homes, nurseries, events, and anywhere we know our animals will be safe. We cater for people of all ages including SEND children. We will take the animals to the venue of your choice for that great handling experience and a chance to learn some great facts about them. Through my life I was lucky to have a great selection of pets, which I loved keeping, I learnt so much from them, and now I can let others experience, learn from the animals I now keep

Couldn't have anyone better than Geoff. Great serv

Our experience for having pet animals with Geoff was great, I can say worth calling him for any event. Geoff and his little helpers are very nice and polite, excellent service . Saved his number for any other event.

Thank you for the great review, and for booking us for your event. I think if the children had their way we would have been there all night . They all were so excited to see and touch the animals. Thank you again
5 Star Review

Absolutely amazing

Geoff arrived promptly, set up quickly and was just amazing! Him and his little helper could not have been better. They got all the kids aged 2 - 8 and adults involved, getting everyone to hold something they are normally scared of. Everyone commented on how excellent the service was, and how incredible it made the party. Would definitely recommend to anyone hosting a party

5 Star Review

Fantastic!!

Service was absolutely amazing! Geoff arrived promptly, set everything up, and was so accommodating—he even waited for the children who hadn’t arrived yet. The young lads who accompanied him were brilliant with the kids, helping to calm any nerves and gently removing the creatures if anyone felt unsure. The time we had handling the animals was incredible, and the whole experience was so well run. I honestly can’t fault a thing! I would highly recommend them and will definitely use them again.

Absolutely brilliant

My daughter and her friends had the most incredible time at her 7th birthday party thanks to Geoff! Geoff is such a lovely guy, engaging with the kids from the moment he arrived, he was unhurried and very knowledgeable. All the other parents commented on what a unique and brilliant idea it is for a party. My son wants Geoff to come back next year for his birthday!! Massive THANK YOU!
