About Catriona

Hi pet lovers!

My name is Cat, and I've recently relocated to Australia. Sadly I've had to leave my furry feline friends back in New Zealand with family. I'm missing the love and cuddles, and would be so happy to take care of your pet, offer hugs and lots of care and attention.

I am missing having furry companions, I would like to continue to pet sit and dog walk now that we have our own place! So, I am doing this more for furry companionship and enjoyment than money :) I have experience with both dogs and cats - big and small, young and old!

I'm currently not working/ doing freelance work based at home, and would like to spend my spare time looking after your pets.

I've been lucky enough to look after the four-legged members of friends' families for extended periods when they've gone overseas, and it's always such a privilege to look after them. I love to walk, and am right near the park for extended runs.

I'm experienced in looking after anxious and rescue pooches and am confident with all types of dogs, as well as cats and smaller animals.

Your pet and home would be loved and well looked after with me! I'm always keen to let you know how your pet is getting on, so expect regular updates if you go away for any period of time. As a photographer I love to take photos of your pets to send to you! I currently work from home, so having your pet stay with me will mean lots of love and attention!

Since January 2017 I have looked after lots of beautiful pets, including:

(on a long term > 1 week, overnight basis)

- 1 Beagle

- 1 Cavalier King Charles

- 1 Poodle

- 2 labradors

- 2 Cocker Spaniels and more cavoodles than I can count!

- 1 Kelpie / Collie X

CATS

I grew up with cats (all rescues from kittens), so have a lot of experience looking after cats from kittens, to elderly cats and both of my current cats were rescues. At this stage I’ve recently moved apartments and cannot currently offer cat boarding but still provide home visits and home stays for kitties! I have looked after the following cats for other people:

- 2 Burmese Cats

- 2 Domestic Short Hair Cats

- 2 Domestic Long Hair Cats

If you choose services at my home, I have an apartment, with a medium sized balcony and shared garden. We also have two 16yo pups - a Moodle and a Chinese Crested who just love to sleep! Any inside/outside pets can use these areas supervised and any indoor pets can easily be kept inside. All pets will of course be kept inside at night time.

I look forward to meeting with you and your pets!

Cat was wonderful and did a fantastic job looking after our nervous dog. We really appreciated the regular updates and have no hesitations using her again!

I highly recommend Catriona, she was a fantastic sitter. Her communication was great, she was great with our dog Ziggy. I can not fault her.

Cat went out of her way to ensure that Ziggy was looked after even though there was a dog personality conflict on the day.

She is a rockstar.
