In my native country I am an urban engineer and I have experience in the area of projects and geographic information systems. Please let me know and I will be happy to provide you with more detailed information about my professional experience in Colombia. This document highlights some of the experiences I have had during my vacation or free time. I am living a new international experience to improve my English and learn as much as possible from this wonderful opportunity. Willing to learn quickly, I have a good attitude and disposition. I love animals. In Colombia I have a pet. I would love to take care of your pets. Please give me the opportunity to share with them and care for them. I really like walking with a dog and seeing new places. Furthermore, I am a student and I am looking to work to improve my skills with other people and live good and new experiences. Can I take care of your pet? My services: pet sitting and home visits, dog walking or home care if you have an upcoming trip but I do not administer medication. I can be with your pets for one hour for the agreed price or if you need more time we can arrange it. I am usually available on Friday nights and Saturday and Sunday mornings. What type of service do you need?
I want to enjoy my experience in Australia and what better way to do it with pets and getting to know the city.

Hi there, pawrent! I'm Trina (she/her), a freelance copywriter and love dogs! (Who doesn't? ). I'm ready and able to walk your dogs any time. I am available from mornings, noon and through to the early evenings (right before dinner), or anytime beyond mentioned, we can always discuss in advance.️ 
On the weekends, I dogsit my partner's parents' cavoodle, Frankie. She has a special diet and has her favourite route for when we go for walks. Her pawrents love that I am meticulous and take good care of her despite all that. 
Caring for Frankie got me thinking, I could look after other furry friends and offer home visits during the week as well! I always go for walks so why not make good use of my time by having company. Would love to do so with all the free time on my hands. This is what motivated me to open up my care for other dogs, not just Frankie. ‍🦺
I work from home now (apart from popping in and out for errands). I also live 5mins away from a huge off-leash dog park so I will dedicate heaps of time for love and care for your doggos 
One rule I adhere to is that I will only walk your dog in safe, dog-friendly park areas near the pick-up/drop-off point and making sure to never wander off anywhere unfamiliar for them. Should you have any route in particular that you take, happy to do the same as well. I would rather take familiar routes that you would normally do versus making new unfamiliar ones. I'm a creature of habit myself! 🦮
 Before I accept a booking, I will need to know if your pet has any behavioural issues that need specific attention or care.
 For home visits, I can only stay for half an hour to an hour. Should you require me to stay longer, we can discuss. My  focus is only on your furry baby, so should you need anything else-- i.e. like expect a parcel delivery, mail pickup, watering plant babies, these should be discussed before hand with a step-by-step instruction on how you would like me to do so, and I'd be happy to get it done for you ️
 If you have any particular notes for caring for your doggo, kindly prepare a list and I will make sure to do as instructed, preferrably communicated way before hand. Minimum I can walk your dog is usually 1 hour but we can also discuss if you need less. Should there be bad weather like heavy rain on our scheduled walk hour, it is best that we reschedule to a better time later in the day or in the week if possible. I usually do not accept off-lead dog play unless you, as the pawrent, require me to do so. Same goes for giving doggo treats. I will only give specific treats as specified by the pawrent due to any dietary restrictions your doggo may have 
Really looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies soon! 

Hi! My name's Michael. I'm a Melbourne local offering care services for your dogs and cats of all ages, shapes and sizes.
I'm friendly, social, kind and responsible. I love being active, exploring Melbourne's food scene and cuddling up on the couch with a furry companion.
I've spent my whole life as a pet owner - from my bordoodle Jess, who kept me company when I was a toddler, to my golden retriever Gilbert and my rescue cat Theo who lives with me today. I've also spent plenty of time looking after pets for friends and family and would love to do the same for you!
Services I offer include:
House visits: I can come to yours for feeding and watering, play time, snuggles, litter tidying / toilet breaks and more. As I work remotely and from home, I'm happy to bring my laptop and spend some time at your place so your pet feels socially nourished and in good company! You'll get photos and videos each visit so you know your pet is happy and cared for.
House sitting: I also over overnight or 2-night stays which include all of the above and plenty of walks as well!

About Me
Hello, I'm Judy, a freelance professional in the health field and a proud cat owner. I am in my late twenties and do not have children currently. As a fellow cat parent to a stunning ragdoll and a lovely snow Bengal, I understand the importance of finding a reliable pet sitter when you're away on holidays or for work.&nbsp;
My Services
As a passionate and dedicated pet sitter, my motivation stems from a genuine love for animals, particularly cats. With a solid background in pet care, I have engaged in various roles, ranging from long-term stays to interactive cat visits for playtime and even one-day overnight stays. I am also able to water plants and bring in mail.&nbsp;
I have a flexible schedule and am available mornings, afternoons and evenings.  For overnight stays, I can stay for 24 hours to a few weeks. I also offer meet and greets with pet owners to ensure both parties are comfortable and the expectation for the pet sitting service is set clearly.&nbsp;
It's important to note that I am dedicated to providing services exclusively in the comfort of the cats' homes. I do not take pets to my own space, but rather, I happily go to their familiar environment. This approach ensures minimal stress for the cats and allows them to maintain their routines and feel secure in their territory.
By choosing me as your pet sitter, you're not just getting someone to look after your cats; you're welcoming a compassionate caregiver who prioritizes their well-being and happiness.


My name is Charlotte, I'm a writer, editor, and lover of all things fluffy (and scaly - I'm actually fond of reptiles). I come from a long line of animal lovers, and love petting all creatures great and small! My camera roll is full of pictures of pets I've encountered, so much so finding pictures of *me* with pets was actually rather difficult! 

I love old dogs, big dogs, any dog as long as they're down for a cuddle! I'm the kind of person who will cross traffic to pat a good dog, and in my opinion all dogs are good dogs! I can also administer medication with instructions and will always make sure there's plenty of positive affirmations afterwards. 

I'm looking to walk dogs as a way to improve my mental health and fitness (my dogs are unfortunately getting old, and they already get a walk a day). I also do visits and overnights - I'm also more likely to contort my own body than kick a dog off a bed, so please rest assured your pups sleep soundly with me. I can drive so am able to take your pets places if need be, or if we decide we wanna go to the beach or something (my favourite place to walk dogs is on the beach!). I look forward to meeting your pets, I mean, you and your pets! 

Hi, I’m Matilda! I’m a primary school teacher who recently moved to Melbourne, and while I’m loving exploring my new city.
I really miss my family dogs back home. Growing up, pets were always a big part of my life, and I’ve had many years of experience pet sitting and caring for friends’ and neighbours’ pets.&nbsp;
Whether it’s feeding, playing, or giving lots of cuddles, I’ve always enjoyed making animals feel safe and happy when their owners are away.
I’d love the chance to spend more time with dogs again by offering dog walking in my local area.&nbsp;
I’m reliable, caring and active, and I understand how important it is to know your furry family members are in good hands. Whether your dog needs a quick walk around the block or a longer adventure, I’d love to help keep their tails wagging!


Hello! My name is Ruby and I'm a 32 year old single woman living in hawthorn! I work full time as a lawyer, and hoping to get a dog of my own later this year. I am interested in dog sitting and walking as I have done it previously for friends and have really loved it. Spending time with dogs always puts me in a better mood and improves my mental health. I really am doing it because I love dogs, they make me happy :)&nbsp;
I work from home 90% of the time and I'm very active. I love going for a walk or a run before and after work. I have a courtyard that is spacious and secure, perfect for having a dog over! I love cuddling dogs, and being affectionate but I am also respectful of your dogs space if they need it!&nbsp;
I will be thrilled to take care of your fur babies!&nbsp;

'What pets do you have?' was one of my favourite questions to answer as a kid. We'd had a turtle, hermit crabs, fish, guppies, rabbits and even a chicken, rescue hedgehog for a very stinky cute moment, for the briefest moment sea monkeys and an ant farm also made the list. But no dog ever replaced Dad's beloved German Shepherd that died when I was nine. I've had a dog-shaped hole in my heart that's only got bigger with age and intensified since losing my Dad. My mom imparted her love for cats. It was only natural since her mom breeds British shorthairs. So one of my earliest memories is looking everywhere for Kitty and being inconsolable and praying she'd be found for weeks as I realised she wasn't coming back. The real love of my life was Misty cat. We had our own language and secret hangouts on my bed before Dad would tuck me in. She was irreplaceable. Then, I briefly adopted my mom's cat, Xena. Xena loves being on your lap, or will lie on your back if youare on your stomach, or hiding in igloos and cupboards when she was sick, or enjoying the warmth of a nest. We'd frequently spend Christmas holidays at my grandparents farm. They briefly had ostriches, but always sheep dogs, droppers and cats, as well as various alpacas. Our favourite times were watching kittens being born, blind and finding their way around the new world. Going there when there were kittens to play with or lambs to bottle feed were some of the highlights.
But I'm currently pet-less. So here I am, ready to treat your pet as my own and your home as the sacred sanctuary it is &lt;3My I'm an experienced high school teacher who misses her classroom/students and staff, but not the system (my VIT registration is 401982, this is even more rigorous than a police check, so I havne't paid for an additional one through Pawshake (I'm currently unemployed to look after myself - like with pet care and therapy ;)) and am looking for work outside of teaching, but you can check it out through VIT).My servicesAt your preferred times, I offer: Dog Walking/or run if they desire ;) (From 30mins walk time from when we leave your home/meeting point); Home Visits (From 30mins - play, feed, clean, monitor - may vary in length if required or besotted, if booking for a weeek or more I'll fully clean any litter trays with your supplies); House sitting (From 24 hours); *From Friday sunset to Saturday sunset I keep a Sabbath but for extended bookings I can commit to walks, visits and house sitting. **Unforunately, I don't offer Doggy Day Care or Boarding at this time, because fortunately I have an incredible 19 year old cat at home who loves people company (only :p).My services will abide by Pawshake's criteria. But I love being helpful, so if there's something unqiue to your circumstances that aren't recognised, or fit your needs, feel free to let me know what you wat and we can make appropriate arrrangments :)[link hidden]
**I say no to jobs I think aren't within my scope and will be honest at a Meet and Greet if I think this is the case. Safety for everyone is important. Alternatively, if there is something beyond my experience/expertise and you'd like to show me (e.g. specific bathing and grooming; training skills etc), then I absolutely love to learn.**My Approach- Love and affection: I like letting an animal become familiar with me and warm to me on their terms (although I will try and use owner's insights to incentivise that connection ;)). I like recognising their individual quirks, personality traits, needs and joys and capturing these special moments to share with doting pet parents. If a pet is particularly enjoying an activity (like a pat, playtime, enrichment time, walk, sniff, scratch etc.) then I usually end up enjoying it just as much as them and engaging until they disengage, or I absolutely have to go...- Flexible Communication: Some people want me to be contactable at all times, or just love regular updates and photos whilst they're away, others find it overwhelming or unnecessary, and usually others are somewhat in the middle. Whatever your communication preference, I'll meet it or collaborate with you before or during our Meet and Greet. :)- Warm, welcoming and compassionate: people have all different kinds of homes, living arragements and preferences for their pets and/or homes. I'm also a cleaner and declutterer because I've found so much joy in it. However,  when I come to look after your pet, I just see your pet and the sacred space it lives in. Some may look cluttered, lived-in, chaotic, unfinished, rundown, and others can look like you've pulled it from a professional photo shoot. Either way, I intend to love and respect the space the way you and your pet do. (They only time I will be concerned is if there are strong artificial fragrances, mould, poor ventilation, or if the space is of danger to me, or your pet. If I can fix it in 15-30minutes of the visit or stay, then I'm more than happy to do so and make a judgement call about letting you know. If I can't rectify it by myself within an appropriate time, I'll let you know and happily help delegate/make appropriate alternative arrangements within my stay time to ensure your home will be safe as soon as possible.).- Low-tox cleanliness: I love cleaning. To me it's a mindful gratitude practise. I have regular cleaning rituals that help keep our pets fed, medicated, with clean water and food bowls (that are cleaned out everyday and cleaned every few days), and litter trays. After a week, I like to clean it thoroughly and completely empty the litter, wash out the tray and dry it. I'll treat your pet with the same pride and care. However, if you have other preferences, I'll follow suit :). - Attentive and attuned: I am studying or mostly self-employed, which means I can notice when your pet needs or enjoys something and respond appropriately. Maybe they're bored and need enrichment; sad and need pats or outside time; cold/hot etc.. I can pause what I'm doing and modify my plans to meet their needs. If I am day or overnight sitting, I'll try not to leave them for over an hour, if it's over two hours I'm anxious, even if you're not or they aren't. Depending on the situation I can stay the full time but I may request additional payment, some food, or enough notice for me ensure I've packed all the food, clothing and supplies I'll need, so that I can remain by their side until your return.When walking dogs, I do my best to ensure we safely cross the road before we come in contact with others. If I'm sharing the footpath I make sure to give a wide birth, keep them clam and focused, just in case there's any vulnerabilities from either party. When walking I like to be provided with doggy bags and appropriate treats.- Respect: I will treat your home and pet like you would like them to be treated. I'll happily use your routines, behaviour cues, sayings, antics, training and socilisiation preferences. I'm happy to bring my own bedding, or appreciate the bedding you provide. If your pet sleeps on your bed, I'll happily sleep with your pet. If your pet sleeps in a crate, I'll put them in their crate. It's your home and I'll tread lightly and graciously, knowing what a privilege it is to be invited into someone's space. Your personal belongings are yours and unless you've offered/asked me or needed me to look for something, they will remain your private personal posessions. I know how vulnerable it can be inviting someone into your home, so I take the respect of this role seriously!- Reliability: I try to meet or exceed your expectations in communication, punctuality and trustworthiness. My phone is usually on sleep mode at night and I'll often put it into flight mode. So if being contactable at all times is improtant to you, we can make arrangements.- Medical observation and administering care and skills: As a former childcare assistant and high school teacher, I have attentive observation skills for behavioural changes or distress, and have experience preventing, recognising and responding to subtle cues or medical needs. Some direct experience with pets has been: recognising UTIs and yeast infections; collecting urine samples from pets; administering liquid medication; mixing probiotics and anti-anxiety powders into food; administering subcutaneous injections and taking blood glucose readings (to care for diabetic cats). Let me know your pet's allergies/sensitivities, preferences, needs, habits or quirks and I'll readily adapt to them.Contact me for a friendly meet &amp; greet! It's always free and obligation-free. :)


Hi everyone!&nbsp;
A little bit about me: I moved to Australia permanently in June 2022 from Canada to be with my Aussie fiancé. I currently work in a high school as a learning support staff. I grew with a family dog, a westie and now am a proud owner of a rescue tabby named Leo. I often pet sat in Canada and would love to continue in Australia. I adore all animals and would love to provide them with the best care and love possible. I have experience with anxious animals and giving medications.
As I am currently studying for a master's of social work, I have availability to pet sit during the day and am happy to pet sit on evenings and weekends. When caring for your adorable pet, I will spend an hour providing them with stimulation such as playing games and going for walks. I will happily provide all the pets and belly rubs. I will also update you with lots of messages and photos!
Please don't hestitate me if you have any questions!

Hi! My name is Don, and I’m a 24-year-old Master’s student at Swinburne University in Melbourne. I recently moved to Hawthorn from Dubai to continue my studies in engineering.

I'm a former boxer dog owner and love looking after big dogs especially (most especially boxers, retrievers and collies!). Have also looked after many small dogs, cats, chickens and ducks, all of whom I love so much!!
I'm very responsible and caring and love all animals. I have a car that doesn't mind a dog or two, and though I'd absolutely love a dog of my own, I travel frequently, so I love looking after others' dogs instead with the help of my wonderful husband, Josh.&nbsp;
We have been travelling for a year, so we've packed up our house in Richmond, Melbourne into storage I have put our daily rate for housesitting down to the minimum possible ($25 per day) for this period as we are happy to look after your pets in exchange for accommodation.
I work from home, so can keep your pets company during the day and will take them for walks daily. We prefer housesits of 1 week or more.
We'll treat your pets like a king/queen, and know how scary it is to have someone else take care of your pets. We're happy to send you photo updates and keep in touch by text as much as you like.&nbsp;
We've looked after boxers, retrievers, staffies, border collies, great danes, brittanys, poodles, grey hounds, kelpies, labs, cats, chickens and ducks, and have a few regular dogs and cars that we love to look after.
