Hi there, I'm Beth. A PhD student at Curtin University looking to have some fun with animals while helping others out. I moved to Perth from the UK where I used to Dog walk as a part-time job during my undergraduate. Moving away from home I am really missing my family dog, Betty (border terrier), and am keen to continue pet sitting and walking. I also used to live with my housemates tabby Cat during my time at university. I looked after him a few times while my housemate was away, so have experience with taking care of cats as well.
I'm a keen runner and would love some company out in nature if your dog needs to get rid of some extra energy! But I enjoy walking any type of dog during the day to help you out while also giving me a nice break from studying. I have experience with both energetic dogs and shy ones too from my time volunteering at a dog shelter in Thailand. I have been exposed to a variety of animals with different needs due to having two vets in the family. I have experience with cat and dog drop-ins as I have done this for my neighbours, friends, and people who used my services in the UK.
I am flexible with availability as I am a student so can fit my studying around your schedule. For house sittings I will need to attend university a few days a week (approx 7hrs) but I can sometimes do most of my work remotely. Please also note that I normally only know my availability 2 weeks in advance but feel free to enquire. I am willing to help out with dog walking, drop-ins, house sittings, and dog boarding. I have a home with a large fenced back garden and can work from home if needed. I live with 2 female friends who both love dogs. I have a car and am willing to commute within reason. So if you need pet help that day I'm the girl to call!
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
First time using a dog sitter for our 12-year old Labrador. The large backyard and the fact that Beth was able to stay home with the dog most of the time were perfect for us. Our old dog needs to be given medication and needs to be treated gently. Beth was very mindful of this, which we greatly appreciated.
I booked Beth to drop by and feed my cats twice a day. She was terrific and kept me up to date on the cats which was really reassuring. I would happily book Beth in the future. Thanks Beth!
