About Grace

I am a 23 year old Bachelor of Music Studies student at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music. I love pet-sitting and dog-walking ; for the outdoors and the uniqueness that each dog has. I am currently taking care of a number of dogs through pet-sitting and dog-walking, we regularly walk to Merri Creek around the bushland to ensure they receieve a great amount of exercise. I have a first-aid certificate and police check.

My cavoodle Tilly is 6 months old - she is energetic, playful and courteous, we spend time together every-day in between studying and dog-walking.

My garden in the heart of Coburg, Melbourne is perfect for dogs, their are lots of flowers, native birds and spaces to play, sniff and run around in and it is convinently located near a bus stop and train station. I am passionate about providing a space for dogs & pets to enjoy their time, whilst away from their families.

I offer services in: Dog walking - 1 hour walk or a 2 hour home visit depending on your dogs needs - I often take dogs around Merri Creek for the peace and quiet. I take dogs individually or in a pair to ensure they recieve the right amount of attention needed.

Pet-sitting - Overnight or short stays at my home in Coburg, I have a large backyard and I will feed, walk and ensure your dog has the right sleeping mat/blankets to sleep peacefully. I will provide dog treats such as bacon, plant-based dog treats for good behaviour however I do not like to create food centred dynamics between dogs.

My living arrangement is quiet, peaceful, fully fenced and well-secured. I live in a well-functioning house with working professionals in the heart of Coburg. We have a vegetable garden, outdoor seating area and places to play.

I am available 7 days a week for overnight stays and 1 hour walks throughout the week.
