About Pia

Hi there,

I'm excited to meet your pet and take care of them when you're not there to.

Through vet nursing I've had the pleasure of working with bears, wolves, horses you name it, and I can honestly say all animals deserve love. I am happy administering medicine, am confident with pets small and large and would love to look after your pet too.

I have two dogs of my own (Jeronimo and Ziggy), so I am sensitive to how much your pet means to you. When I take on a new client, I treat their pets with the same love that I do my own. I am respectful of your privacy, as well as your property and ensure the utmost trust and professionalism when entering your home or yard.

I offer pick up and drop off service, home visits, dog walking, daycare and given the right pet I can take your pet for vacation stay in our home while your away for longer period.

- Dog Walking

All walks are a minimum of one hour, but can be tailored to your dog's physical needs. We have an abundance of walking trails, off leash dog parks and Sandgate foreshore within our reach.

- Home visits

Weather you're teaching your new puppy to stay home alone while you're at work, or need a happy face to feed, cuddle and take your pet out for toilet while you're on holiday, I'm keen to help out. All visits are a minimum of one hour and I can come up to three times a day.

- Day Care

If you work long days or have a pet who loves human company, I can pick up your pup and welcome them into my home for an eight hour day From 9am until 5pm. I take a maximum of one dog per day, to ensure there is always harmony with your pet and my two friends dogs Ziggy and Jeronimo.

We start the visit with a free dog walk to help get some of their energy out, before taking them home. We provide water, toys and have a clean, spare bed to snooze on. Any treats or food should be provided by the owner to ensure dietart needs are met.

Our front and back yard are fully fenced to 1.5m and there is plenty of garden for your pooch to explore. Dogs love our garden, and I'm sure yours will too.

- Overnight stays

While you're away, we're happy to look after your dog for overnight stays. We offer a free pick up your dog from your home, so you can leave for your trip with one less thing on your plate. Our rate is for the full 24 hour day.

While staying with us, your dog will have a daily walk, breakfast and dinner (pet owners will need to provide their regular measured food), have free access to inside the house as well as the yard, have their own bed to sleep in and will be treated like one of our own.

We appreciate this will be stressful on your pet, particularly at night. Your dog will sleep in the guest room with me, so that they always have a human to communicate with, even if it's for a wee at 2am. We suggest packing their dog bed, so they have somewhere familiar to sleep.

All situations are different, as you and your pet are unique. Please tell me as much as you can about your pet to ensure I can make them as happy as possible. I always meet my new pets before agreeing to take on a job to ensure they are comfortable and familiar with me.

I am available for repeat bookings, Christmas bookings, last minute bookings and currently have availability on most days.

I'm looking forward to meeting you and your pet soon!

Omg! I am so pleased that I found Pia on Pawshake, she has walked Marshall 3 times this week and he absolutely loves her. I showed my son a video of Marshall on his walk and Marshall heard Pia’s voice and was running around the house so excited looking for her. If that’s not a tell tale sign that she’s doing an amazing job then I don’t know what is. Thank you Pia
