Hey there! I’m Amelia, a 28-year-old experienced animal lover who would love the pleasure of looking after your fur child/ren :-) I moved to Melbourne at the end of last year with my cat Lulu. I currently work Mon-Fri 9-5, with Monday and Friday being from home, so I have more flexibility on those days.
My experience
I absolutely adore animals and have 6 years of experience as a pet sitter and SPCA NZ volunteer. I've been fortunate to grow up with animals and am a proud cat Mum to Lulu, a 7-year-old SPCA rescue who made the move over to Australia with me.
My volunteer experience at the SPCA was within the vet care section, so I have plenty of experience looking after sick animals—mostly cats, dogs, and rabbits. If your cat needs medication, that's no problem! I have pilled many cats from my spca days, as well as giving insulin injections. Lulu receives pills every day, and has previously had a feeding tube placed in her oesophagus following a life threatening pancreatitis episode.
When it comes to your doggo's size and breed, I don't discriminate! I have experience with large pups that are strong pullers, through to sassy chihuahuas (or hua hua's as I like to call them lol).
Services I can provide
Note: As I have a cat of my own, I am unable to do overnight stays.
Transport and proximity
I do not have a car (sadly) and rely on my bike and public transport to get around. Because of this, I only accept bookings within 5km/20 min cycling distance from my home in Brunswick , or 30 mins on PT.
Availability
Saturday and Sunday: Full Availability
Monday and Friday: I wfh these days so can pop over during lunch if close, and can do twice daily visits.
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday: I am in the office 8:30-5 in the city so am limited to evenings.
Please message me with any questions you may have, as well as your approximate location (street) when inquiring. I hope to meet your fluffy child/children soon!
Amelia ☺️

Thank you Amelia for taking care of my cats! Very easy to communicate with and accommodating for my cat's medication needs. Thanks for sending through photos!
