About Violet
Hi my names Violet ✌️
I'm a stay at home homeschooling mum to two kiddos aged 9 and 12. I study and work part time from home. We share our lovely home with an adorable smoochy rag doll cat named Luna.
I have been pet sitting for around 5 years as I truly find it enjoyable combining my love for animals with my love for meeting lots of new and interesting people. Our home is warm welcoming and very cosy. We all absolutely love animals and have a blast with them when they come to stay with us. We lost our beloved 14 year old Shih Tzu named Buddy during the pandemic and pet sitting has been a lovely way to enjoy some furry company and ease our achey hearts.
Generally someone is always at home which makes minding pets easier in case of needing regular toileting etc. We have tiled floors, air-conditioning, lots of cool toys to play with, cooling pads for the summer, plus 2 living areas so lots of cosy places to find somewhere nice to snuggle up. We aren't precious about your pets laying on furniture or our laps if they like, however we will respect and follow whatever rules you follow at home to remain consistent so they don't pick up bad habits during their stay. I change water twice daily, take them for a walk each morning and afternoon plus give lots of cuddles and attention and there is always access outside throughout the day for loo breaks. My daughters love to throw around a ball or join in the zoomies with all of our furry guests.
We live across the road from a couple of large parks and several minutes from a fully enclosed dog park which is perfect for daily walks or to throw around a ball if they are able to go off lead. We sometimes take them to the beach to toss around a ball or stick as well if we get permission from you before their stay. At home we have a medium sized backyard to throw around a ball for playtime with very high fences and are only 15-20 minutes from an emergency 24 hour vet for extra peace of mind.
During your pets stay I take photos and send you regular updates while you are away so that you can rest assured that your fur baby is happy and having a great time while you're gone. I will usually be in touch the day prior to booking commencement to arrange a drop off or collection time and usually have all of their things washed and ready to go home at the end of their stay to make pickups fast and smooth as most families are tired from travelling and just want to get home. I normally only book one furry guest at a time, however, if I receive permission from owners for a play buddy I'll sometimes take an extra booking from my regular clients as well and this works out great for owners wanting their pets to have some social time.
Another option for pet care that I do offer is coming to YOU! This is great for elderly, dogs with disabilities or ones that just prefer to stay in the comfort of their own home while you're away. I can come by feed, toilet, get mail in, top up water and play with your pet in your own home. I can swing by mornings only or twice daily to feed in the morning and evening. I also offer dog walking services locally to the Baringa area.
We would prefer small to medium sized dogs to stay ideally although a calm older large dog would also be a good fit for our family as well. We do ask that your dog be toilet trained (if not a pup) and have no separation anxiety. We can do pick up and/or drop off locally if you can’t manage it around your travel plans for an added cost.
If you think I'd be a good match to look after and love on your furry little friend while you're away then please drop me a message and we can arrange a meet and greet and if everyones happy then we can get you booked in!
-----Important Info-----
All pets that come to stay must be vaccinated, flea and worm treated to make it a safe space for all to stay and prevent the spread of illness. I don't accept bookings without a meet and greet prior unless owners are from out of state in which case we'll chat over the phone or FaceTime instead. I often take long bookings of a few weeks to a few months and can offer a much discounted rate for this so please just get in touch with me to discuss this further. 😊
