About me
Hello pet owners!
My name is Annie, I'm 28 years old from Scotland and I live in central Cairns. I undertook casual pet-sitting jobs in Scotland, and I have always had a passion for taking care of and being around animals.
I am a very active person, a vegetarian, and I love being outdoors and exploring new places. I have grown up with dogs, cats, birds, hamsters and around farm animals. I am very confident with looking after and walking dogs of all sizes.
In terms of my background, I have an honours degree in Communications and Marketing, and have work experience in pet-sitting, English teaching, child-minding, hospitality and various retail roles. My hobbies include cooking, walking, cycling, spending time with friends, writing, and music.
Services I Can Offer
I am able to pet sit from home and I am currently living in central Cairns in a house that has a well fenced front and back garden. One of my roommates has a very friendly dog that gets on well with other dogs, and I have my 3 month old puppy; Randy.
I have three roommates in the house who are also animal lovers, as well as my partner who grew up on a farm in Cairns with dogs/cats/pigs etc.
I am happy to house-sit at your home as long as it's within the central Cairns region. I don't have my own transport, but I am able to use public transport to get to and from places. My partner also owns a car, so I can be flexible. For dog walks, my house is next to a specific dog walking park, and I am happy to take your dog to the beach/other local parks.
I offer long and short walks for your pet depending on their needs, feeding, and overall caring of pets. I can look after your pet from my home as well as pet-sit at your house. I am happy to let your pet sleep in my room if it has its own bed or we have a cosy living room where he/she can sleep.
Please get in touch if you require a pet-sitter in Cairns. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your furry friend!
Other information
I am happy for pet owners to visit my house to see the house and garden before a pet sitting agreement is made.
I am comfortable looking after/feeding all animals except snakes and spiders - mostly because I do not have experience in these areas.
I can take only one animal at a time in my home as I have a puppy as well, but I am happy to housesit/walk/feed more animals at a time.
Vaccinated pets only to my home.
The rates I have included in my profile are negotiable depending on pet sitting requirements.
Please get in touch if you are looking for any help with pet sitting/pet walking and or feed/home-stays.
*Please ensure that your pet is comfortable with other dogs and people before inquiring.
Thanks, Annie :)

Odin had a great time staying with Annie and playing with her pup, he'll be returning next week for more fun! She provided regular updates and pictures, and returned a happy, tired puppy at the end of the day.
Annie had excellent communication skills and was wonderful in her care of Lizzy. We would totally recommend her for looking after your pets. We are travelling and it was so great to have a day to ourselves. Highly recommend, thank you Annie
