Susannah

I am a pet loving and highly experienced pet sitter based in Sydney. This year I'm temporarily available for overnight petsitting in the Brisbane City area over the Xmas/NY period from mid December until early January.

I have a life-long love of animals. Previous petsitting experiences have ranged from a few days to 8 months. I am available for petsitting close to Sydney CBD in City and Beach suburbs. I've enjoyed discovering different parts of Sydney in this time, although my primary motivation is a love of pets.

I will care for your pets and home as my own. I enjoy building a relationship with pets in the security and familiarity of their own home. You can then enjoy a few days out of town, or an extended trip overseas secure in the knowledge that pets are happy and everything is taken care of at home.

While I genuinely enjoy the company of pets, I aso take my responsibiities seriously and work hard to ensure the continuing health, comfort and security of pets in my care. I will keep you informed with regular updates and photos.

I have experience with many diffferent pets including cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs and horses to name a few. I have been surrounded by animals throughout my life, with my childhood spent on a farm in Devon, and many years as an adult pet sitting.

I provide a stable environment while you're away, keeping as closely as possible to already established routines. I am an experienced dog-walker and will maintain your dog's regular exercise routine in the local park or community.

I am experienced in providing tailored care to rescue pets or pets who may experience increased anxiety while their pet parents are away. An important first step in every petsit includes taking the time and patience to gradually build trust and rapport.

My wonderful rescue dog, Modbury May Curtis, taught me about delighfully eccentric and anxious pets who often continue to struggle with a difficult past. I can administer medication and support any special needs or elder care as required.

Alongside providing ongoing care, daily exercise and company for your pets, I take pride in maintaining the upkeep and security of your home. This includes checking for mail, managing bins and recycling, watering plants and ensuring security measures are followed. I am mindful about use of utilities and take great care of your belongings and privacy.

I work 4 days p/w in the area of arts and disability, and often work from home 1 day p/w. I enjoy spending as much time as possible with the pets in my care. It is a pleasure building lasting relationships, and I have many return pet sits.

I look forward to meeting you and your pets!
