I'm a speech pathologist and business owner based in Melbourne. I'm extremely easy going, responsible and genuinely love caring for animals/homes as if they were my own. I've grown up around pets and are very comfortable caring for dogs and cats with different personalities, routines and needs. I work closely with children everyday, so patience and attentiveness are a huge part of who I naturally am. I live a quiet lifestyle, am a non-smoker and take great pride in being respectful, clean and communicative. You can expect regular updates, photos and honest communication while you're away so you can fully relax knowing your pets/home are in safe hands. I am happy to offer daily dog walking services (45 min. minimum) or pet sit for weeks at a time. I have experience with puppies, having had many growing up including being midwife for my dog. I've also cared for senior dogs and am comfortable with administering medication. I understand how important trust is when inviting someone into your home, and aim to make the experience feel easy, reassuring and stress-free from start to finish.
