Hi I’m Amy - a reliable pet sitter and an animal lover. I'm a 35 year old public servant and psychology student, pet sitting to allow me to work less and study more!

I offer overnight care for your furry friends (or feathered, or scaly!) starting at $50 per night, providing a safe and affectionate environment for your pets in the comfort of their own home. I typically accept stays longer than one week and can accommodate stays of a month or more - I'm happy to discuss discounted rates for long sits. I have experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes (including rescues), cats, chickens, and plants. I have a very calm demeanour which I find rescues and anxious pets respond well to. I'm new to Pawshake but have extensive experience house and pet sitting. I've can provide testimonials from previous home owners whose furry friends I've cared for in the past.

I work and study from home, so will spend plenty of time with your pets during the day and evenings. I know how important it can be for your pets to have consistency in routine, so will follow any normal daily feeding and exercise schedules, administer medications, and continue any training or behavioural work you are progressing. I have experience administering oral medication and supplements to cats and dogs, along with creams, gels, and puffers. I'll happily provide regular updates on your pets (if you wish) while you're away. I will care for your home as if it was my own and follow your instructions to ensure it is secure while you’re away.

I am proactive, reliable, and a great communicator. I'm a non-smoker and non-drinker, have my own car, and I will happily provide a police check upon request. I have a Canberra-based partner (male, 36, full-time public servant, also a non-smoker and non-drinker with experience house and pet sitting) who will stay with me while I'm pet sitting a couple of nights a week, but will not be involved in caring for your pets.

I understand how precious your home and pets are to you and how important it will be for you to know that they are in caring hands. Your pet's happiness and security are my priorities, and I approach each engagement with dedication and enthusiasm. With a proven track record as a pet sitter, I bring a wealth of experience to ensure the wellbeing of your beloved pets while you can't be with them yourself.
