Hello, our names are Grace and Josh.
👨🏻🦰👩🏻🦱We are a recently married 34 year old couple but have been together since high school.
❌👶We do not have any children.
🐶We had a beautiful 12 year old Pomeranian, Camille, that we both adored. Camille unfortunately passed away in August 2022. She was the love of our life and we still miss her every day. We are not ready for a new dog but we love minding others' dogs.
We have over a decade of experience caring for/pampering small dogs. We frequently look after my mum's Maltese and have minded many small dogs through Pawshake.
👨💻We both work from home on weekdays and it is rare that one of us is not home.
🏠We own a large home in Bardwell Valley (it’s about 10 minutes from Marrickville, next to Earlwood). Our land size is nearly 400m2 and our property is fully fenced with lots of areas to play & many comfy, sunlit chairs in to sleep on.
✈️Bardwell Valley is a 12 minute drive to the airport, so you can drop your dog and car off at ours and pick them up en route to the airport/back home. If you drop your car off at ours before a flight, we can drive you to the airport depending on your schedule and leave your car parked at ours on a wide suburban street. Please let us know if this is needed when you are booking.
🏞Our suburb is dog friendly with a large green parks within five minutes of our home.
🦮We will walk your dog in the morning and afternoon, but are happy to work with their schedule as well as we both work from home.
🛌We will keep your dog inside and if they want to sleep on our bed at night, they are more than welcome to.
💊We have experience administering medication if required, even the pills that don't taste like beef (Tip: You can sneak pills into a bit of hummus on a spoon).
🏥There is a wonderful vet <10 mins from us should urgent assistance ever be required.
📸We will keep you updated with photos throughout your dog’s stay. Josh basically has no photos on his phone bar Camille and his vegetable patch.
💉Vaccinated & desexed pets only please
Thank you for considering us for your dog, We will give all the love and care that we had for Camille to them!
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
Grace took fantastic care of our pug puppy Gladys (Josh was away at the time). Gladys had lots of fun and we felt very confident leaving her with Grace.
Josh and Grace took amazing care of our 2 year old pug Gaston. They are kind, attentive and sent lots of photo updates so we knew our pug was happy and well cared for. We would absolutely recommend Josh and Grace without hesitation.
