About Jeff

I love cats and have 1 of my own. Cats will usually come to me and allow me to pat them. I also am an experienced dog walker. Being retired I have lots of time to patiently feed / look after your pets when visiting/sitting your home or when walking your dog(s). Usually I will walk your dog(s) for 1 hour but if the dog is older I can walk for less time. I prefer mornings to walk your dog and early mornings if it is hot day. 

Regarding feeding at your house, depending on your requirements I will usually spend 15 to 30 minutes feeding, providing water to the pets once or twice a day and changing litter every few days. I am happy to bring in mail, water plants, take out bins on bin night, etc. as well at no extra cost. I am an experienced house sitter and when minding your house, I will follow your particular instructions. I will make sure your pets are fed and looked after. All security measures (eg doors locked, gates closed, mail collected etc.) are taken if I leave the house for example to go shopping or exercise. I will usually be in the house a minimum of 16 hours each day. I am a tidy person and will make sure the house is clean while I am there. 

Having worked for an animal health company for 20 years I am also experienced in administering pet medication such as topicals for fleas/ticks, flea collars or worming tablets / spot-ons, anxiety medications, etc. I can work with all kinds of dogs large or small and all kinds of cats - shy or outgoing, temperamental or friendly. The most important thing is to give the pet(s) the complete attention it deserves and to make sure its needs are met. In summary, i love animals and animals love me. I have wide experience and am available to start immediately. I can work most hours and most days and will fit in with your needs. Pets are like family and that is how i will treat your loved ones - because that is the very least they deserve. There is a lot of evidence to show that people who have pets are happier than those who don't.

Finally, I am also an experienced maths tutor and tutor all years of high school up to HSC. I come to your house and my tutoring rates are reasonable.

This is the second time we’ve used Jeff to take care of our 4 pets and he took great care whilst we were away…even brought in our mail/parcels.

During the storm he had to rescue our elderly dog who somehow escaped, and made sure they were safe in NYE. Daily photos and updates gave us relief. Thanks Jeff.
