I live in Thornbury with my partner, her 13 year-old daughter (part-time), our 1 year-old Jack Russell terrier cross, Filip and a (rather aloof) blue tongue lizard, Inigo Montoya.
I have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember and have grown up with/raised dogs from a young age. I have experience with puppies, anxious dogs, aggressive dogs and disobedient dogs. I'm happy to continue your training and will do my utmost not to reinforce any bad habits. I am a musician and tour for extended periods, but when I am home, I have an abundance of time and would be happy to provide care for your dog.
Our hound, Filip is very dog social and absolutely loves to play with a broad variety of canine friends however, a meet and greet prior to spending time at our place would be ideal, to ensure a smooth introduction. We have a large, grassy, secure back yard with plenty of room to throw a ball and exercise at home. We also regularly walk Filip along the nearby Merri Creek which has great off lead dog areas and lovely walking tracks, should your dog care for an adventure.
I offer doggy daycare, dog boarding and dog walking. I am also more than happy to do house visits or house sitting to look after any animal, water your garden and collect your mail. Both dog walks and house visits are for at least an hour each.
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
Ben is a very warm and kind dog sitter. My boy Roscoe loved his time at Ben’s house playing with their Kelpie and lounging around in the cosy sunny house. We will be sure to visit Ben again!
Ben was amazing, came over and spent time, walked them and cleaned up after them, would leave my dogs with him or have him come over and look after our dogs at anytime.
