Heather

Hi everyone!

I'm Heather, I'm based in Brunswick West, and I would love to help you out with your animals.

As I'm not currently in the position to have my own pet, I joined Pawshake to try to keep my animal glass on the half-full side; to have the opportunity to still spend time with animals. I'm comfortable with pets of all kinds, and all sizes. I've had lots of experience looking after both dogs and cats and I like to get out of the house so can promise to give dogs some good exercise.

My office hours vary at the moment, so my availability will change on a weekly basis. This is particularly the case for dogs, as I live in an apartment and wouldn't want to the dog to be stuck indoors for the entire day (~10 hours out of the house). However, for the foreseeable future I have only limited days in the office so please get in touch and we can see if there's anything we can work out.

Though not a qualified trainer, I have completed a course in Companion Animal Services and have a good understanding of (predominantly) dog behaviour and positive (force-free) training methods. I'm more than happy to talk through some training methods that I know, and have used to success, if you have any interest.

Services I can currently offer:

- weekday dog walks - afternoon - ~30 minutes

- weekend dog walks - anytime - any duration

- dog/cat sitting at my house - anytime (office hours permitting)

If there's anything you need not listed, let me know. I will keep in touch with you while I'm looking after your pet and send you photo updates so you can be sure they are being well looked after.

I look forward to hearing from you!
