Jennifer Aniston voted the celebrity most trusted to look after pets

Jennifer Aniston has been voted the celebrity most trusted to look after pets while their owners are on holiday.

US animal website PawNation.com asked people which star they would be happy to let care for their cats, dogs, birds, rodents and reptiles while they were away from home.

An overwhelming 70 per cent of respondents named Aniston the most suitable candidate, followed by fellow animal lovers Pamela Anderson, Nicole Richie and Mickey Rourke.

The 40-year-old actress often speaks about her devotion to her dog Norman, a corgi-terrier cross-breed.

She recently said: "There's no dog like him. He's just a person in a furry outfit. I don't even know how to describe him. He's a wise old man who could, with a look, with one stare, crush me. He's a laser light beaming into my soul."

Jennifer loves Norman so much, she reportedly splashes out $250 a week on massage, Reiki and acupuncture treatments for the ageing canine.

The survey also revealed that 49 per cent of pet lovers think pet weddings are "ridiculous", while 66 per cent spend more than $50 on their pets a month.

Earlier this week, Angelina Jolie – who is now in a long-term relationship with Jennifer’s ex-husband Brad Pitt - was named the Most Powerful Celebrity by Forbes magazine.
