Hi, my name is Kirstie and I have been working full time as a petsitter. I specialise in going to the client's home and caring for their pet, day and night. Unfortunately I am unable to board animals at my home, so please note this when booking my services.
I have been a volunteer at Seeing Eye Dogs Australia for 6 years in that time I was working within the kennels and the puppy training centre. Some of my duties included grooming and washing puppies, making meals and feeding, walking and cleaning up after them.
I have also completed my Certificate 2 and 3 in Animal Studies. I am a huge animal lover! And a huge believer that animals are the best therapy and i love being around animals. I promise you that I will love and care for your pets as if they are my own!
I specialise in offering day pet sitting, and overnight sitting at your home. I am also available for one-off or regular house visits where I can feed your pet and keep them company. This is suitable for office workers or those working long hours and think that their pet may need some company.
Please immediately let me know if your pet has any allergies or other medical conditions at the meet and greet. This is very important!
My services include providing your pet with a lot of love, playing with them, going for a short walk in your neighbourhood (if required), making sure they go to the toilet and that they have plenty of food and water. I will also bring pet treats for your pets.
House visits will involve these services, as will overnight stays. I will ensure your pet doesn't feel lonely during overnight stays!
I am flexible with time, so please let me know in your inquiry how many nights you're looking for. Please note that an extra fee applies for more than 2 pets.
I have cared for a number of breeds including the following:
• Maine Coon (cat)
• Ragdoll (cat)
• Spoodle
• Whippet puppy
• Pugalier
• Chihuahua
• Staffy
• Rabbits
• And many more!
I work best with small to medium breeds of all ages, and might not be the best fit for a larger dog.
Thank you! I look forward to getting to know you and your fur babies!

About me:
I'm 22 years old and I am in my 5th year of studying a bachelor of Law and Arts. I also work as the Quality Manager for a private RTO called 4 Up Skilling where I work from home one day a week. I regularly compete in showjumping on the weekends and have 5 competition warmblood horses of my own. I grew up on a family sheep and cattle farm 2 hours north of Melbourne. We had a range of different pets: cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and dogs (including Kelpies, Labradors and Whippets). I own two whippets called Lilly and Hector who live with me in Melbourne. I love animals and thought pet sitting would be a fantastic job to help me through my final years at uni doing what I love. 

Experience: 
My mum was a vet nurse and growing up I volunteered at the vet clinic where she worked in Avenel, Vic. This included helping administer medications, cleaning pet beds, feeding and watering the animals, and walking/exercising the dogs. I also have experience with rabbits and guinea pigs as I owned these pets growing up, which taught me early on of the responsibility of owning an animal. As mentioned above I also have spent the first 20 years of my life on a farm and have experience in managing a range of different animals. I have also dog sat two of my friends dogs before on the days that I have worked from home, Kevin the Labrador and Margot the Labradoodle. 

Services: 
I offer dog walking and home visit services in the Maidstone, Footscray, Ascot Vale, Maribyrnong, and Sunshine areas. I can come to you, or you can drop off your pet to be walked around Maidstone.&nbsp;I am 10 minutes walk away from the Maribyrnong river and offer walk my two whippets along there. There is also an off leash dog park near me where I could walk your dog. I can walk your dog for between 30-40 minutes depending on what they need. For home visits, I would be there for 30-40 minutes and can water and feed you pet, let it outside to toilet, or spend time playing with them. I can also walk your dog as an add on. I will be offering these services on a Monday and Wednesday most weeks, the times will differ to work around my university schedule. I may also offer in the future a daycare service on Tuesdays as I work from home. I may only be out of the house for 30 minutes at a time to run errands. I have a fully fenced back years with grass the services my two dogs wonderfully. The inside of the house is tidy, with little for your dogs to chew or get into. Please keep in mind that your dog would have to be friendly with my two whippets, mine are a year old and two years old and are good with other dogs, but keep in mind their size and the fact they can be high energy at times. Please contact me if you are interested in this service. 

Hello!!! My name is Beck, I am a registered nurse and a fur Mum to three fur babies. Two Dogs (Bobby and Rusty) and Fred the cat!
Bobby is 13 years old, Rusty is 12 and Fred 8. I have grown up with animals my whole life, and love the unconditional love and affection they give to you. Rusty has Cushings disease and requires daily medication, so I am well versed in sneaking a tablet in if needed.&nbsp;
I know how stressful it can be leaving your babies at home whilst you go on holiday. So if I can give someone the piece of mind, that their baby is well looked after whilst their away, then that would be amazing!&nbsp;
Currently I'm only available for house visits and walks as I have a 3 year old at home and our own pets to look after. I won't be working for the next little bit, so have a lot of free time during the day (whilst my daughter is as daycare) to visit your fur babies.&nbsp;


Hey there! 
I am Hannes, 28 years old from Germany. I am an easygoing, open minded guy, who loves life and dogs!
Back home my family had a female Rottweiler (Leyla) and a male German Shepherd (Aaron). I spend almost everyday with them and saw them growing up. We were living close to a lake, so i often went there to have a bath with them or went to the nearby forest to throw some sticks. That's what they loved the most. The Rottweiler was special, when it comes to meeting other dogs, so I know how to handle those kind of situations. 
After 8 years of having lived with dogs in our family, i moved overseas by myself and would love to spend some time with dogs again, no matter what race it is, no matter on how i should spend the days with the doggo! I am very flexible about time and location, just leave a message :)

Looking forward to meet you! 

I am a Filipino-Kiwi now living in Melbourne. I love dogs with a special affinity for greyhounds, corgis and retrievers. I was a parent of two adopted greyhounds and one golden retriever, and I used to dogsit a corgi in New York City.
I commute from the Inner West so access to public transport is important (for now, until I get a car ). 
I'm happy to be booked for the entire day while you're at work. I can give your dog-child tons of cuddles and walks for the day. I can also administer medication if needed. I have experience with my own doggies, giving them vitamins and meds when they were sick. 
I live near a dog park so you can also drop off your furry friend for the day. I can take them for playtime in the dog park, a walk around the neighborhood or just hanging in our backyard. 
I'm also happy to housesit - water plants, check mail, and of course care for your doggies.  
Having been a dog parent, I know what I'm looking for when it comes to someone spending time with my dog child. 

Hello everyone.&nbsp; I am Colombian, I am 30 years old, I am an environmental engineer and for things in life I came to study in this beautiful country I have free time after 4pm&nbsp;at weekdays and full time at the weekendes to be a babysitter.&nbsp; I have more than 20 years of experience in the care of pets (dogs and cats), and above all experience in the care of geriatric dogs with motor and kidney disabilities.&nbsp; I am a person in love with animals, I am very sweet and affectionate, so you can be fully confident that your pets will be in the best hands.&nbsp; I live very close to a train station, so I can easily transport myself throughout the city so I can take care of your pets at home, without the need for them to be transported anywhere.&nbsp; I love going for a walk in parks and enjoying the fresh air in the company of a furry friend..

Hello there!&nbsp;
I specialize in providing excellent care for your home and beloved pets. With a track record of 5-star reviews from past house sits, I am currently based in Melbourne and work on a casual basis while house sitting.
Despite not having pets growing up in Switzerland, I actively sought opportunities to interact with animals through volunteering at shelters, walking the dogs there and spending time with friends' pets.
Throughout my journey, I've had the pleasure of caring for wonderful pets across Victoria and Queensland. This experience has deepened my skills and understanding of pet care.
I also understand the importance of your home, ensuring I take care of details like turning off lights and air conditioners when not in use. For homes with solar panels, I prioritize using the dishwasher and washing machine during daylight hours and only with full loads.
I'm more than happy to meet in person to see if I'm the right fit for your needs.

Looking forward to the opportunity to care for your furry companions and home!

Best regards,
Jessica

- Due to my current housing arrangement, I am unable to accommodate additional pets.
- For overnight stays at your place, my partner Elio will also be present, as we travel together across Australia and have completed all past house sits as a team.
- I have created this profile to explore opportunities in professional pet care beyond regular house sitting.

Happy to provide screenshots of references from past house sits!&nbsp;

Hi, I'm Stevie. I live in North Adelaide area with my partner, and our cat, Hazel.
I will be visiting Melbourne in January 2024. I'll be working in the Seddon/Footscray area, but am open to other locations as well. My dates are flexible. I'd love to do some house/pet sitting, but can also visit and/or walk your pets. I'm familiar with the house sitting process and can easily take care of your pets and home. 
I'm a high school teacher. My beloved dog, Tassie, passed away in 2019 and I'm a pretty lost without her, especially on my walks! She spent 11 short years with me before she passed on. She was little, but in her prime she went on long hikes with me. 
I've been around dogs and cats (and other animals) my whole life, and have plenty of experience caring for animals, including medication administration, basic grooming and cleaning, and sooo much walking!
