Hi, I’m Jacqui! I’m a lifelong animal lover and honestly happiest when I have a furry friend around. I’ve always had a huge soft spot for animals and love their company, personalities and the joy they bring to everyday life. I’m offering pet sitting and dog walking because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and would love the opportunity to care for other people’s pets when they need a little extra love and attention. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust, so I’ll treat every animal as if they were my own, with plenty of cuddles, play time, walks, attention and patience. I’m happy to care for dogs, cats and other pets, and I’m comfortable getting to know each animal’s individual personality, routine and needs. For dog walks, I’ll make sure your dog gets a good walk, some stimulation and plenty of attention. For pet-sitting or visits, I can provide companionship, feeding, fresh water, playtime, cuddles, and whatever other simple routine your pet is used to. I’m based in St Kilda East and am happy to help with pets in the surrounding inner-south/eastern suburbs. I’m flexible with my availability and can discuss what works best for you and your pet. Most importantly, I’m reliable, caring and genuinely excited to spend time with animals. Your pet’s happiness and wellbeing will always be my priority! 🐾

Practicality wise - I have fostered multiple dogs and cats over the years, especially in Covid, and I am the unofficial dog-sitter for my friends and family. I can take your fur-baby on a half hour walk or a little longer or shorter if you prefer and I can spend time playing with your cat for the same amount of time. I'd love to have sleep-over or day hang-outs when I work from home also, or even happy to house/animal sit, which I do often for family and friends also. I may be taking care of your loved (fur)ones but they are really taking care of me 🥹 In my opinion animal friendship is an important and essential life therapy 😻
