About Marieke

Hello,

Please allow me to introduce myself; I am Marieke, 26 years old. I am from Amsterdam and I arrived in Australia November 2nd on a working holiday visa. I studied all-round animal care and veterinary nursing (graduated in 2014) and I work at Animal Medical Centre Launceston and Kings Meadows Vet Clinic. I decided on a second study and got my BSc Applied Ecology in 2018.

I grew up with Dachshunds, cats, rats, reptiles and fish, and worked in two Zoos, a pettingzoo, two animal shelters and two petshops and three vet clinics over the years, so... plenty of experience with all sorts of animals, including pets with a dificult medical background and special needs. Also, I have been a pet-, house- and babysitter since I was 14 years old.

I can offer a home to take the animals in, but I am also comfortable petsitting at the pet’s home, or just taking dogs for a walk. I worked at an animal shelter where I took 13 dogs out on the leash at the time, so don’t worry about my length, I’ll manage with big dogs. I have had my fair share of scratches, so I’ll be fine, also with animals that don’t like to be handled too much.

Please feel free to contact me for more information!

Kind regards,

Marieke
