Hello! I’ve recently moved to Cairns and am missing the constant companionship of a dog. Having grown up surrounded by pets, including my Labrador and my Cockapoo, I truly believe dogs are family. Specialized Experience & Care I have extensive experience with high-needs dogs. My own Cockapoo struggled significantly with separation anxiety, so I am deeply familiar with the patience and specialized care required for anxious or reactive pups. I understand the "velcro dog" personality and know how to provide a calm, reassuring presence to help them feel secure. Safety & Emergency Readiness Your dog’s safety is my absolute priority. During our walks along the Cairns boardwalk or in local green spaces, I utilize: • Double-point leash attachments for reactive or "flight risk" dogs. • Constant environmental scanning to avoid stressful triggers. • Strict "no off-lead" policies unless in a fully secured, familiar area. In the unlikely event of an emergency, I am calm under pressure, have immediate access to transport, and keep the contact details of the nearest 24-hour vet (such as Cairns Veterinary Clinic) on hand at all times. Daily Routine & Enrichment I am at home for the majority of the day, ensuring dogs are never left alone for more than an hour. A typical day includes: • Structured Exercise: Morning and afternoon walks tailored to their energy level. • Mental Enrichment: Sniff-walks, basic command reinforcement, and puzzle toys to keep their minds sharp. • Handled with Love: I am comfortable managing multiple dogs from the same household and am diligent about following specific feeding, medication, or training routines. I treat every dog with the same level of care and vigilance I gave my own. I can't wait to meet your furry friend and give them a home-away-from-home experience!
