I have grown up around both cats and dogs my whole life and have always had a strong love for animals. All of the dogs I have grown up with have been rescue dogs, so I understand how important patience, trust and creating a safe environment is for animals. Alongside caring for my own pets, I have also helped care for the pets of friends and family, giving me experience with animals of different personalities, routines and needs.

I pride myself on being calm and patient, especially with pets who may be shy or anxious. I understand how important it is for animals to feel safe, comfortable and cared for while their owners are away.

I have also experienced an emergency situation with one of my own dogs where I needed to stay calm, contact an after-hours vet and take them to the emergency room. That experience reassured me of the importance of staying calm in stressful situations so your furry loved one can feel as safe, calm and comfortable as possible. I also have experience giving tablets orally to both dogs and cats, however I do not have experience with other forms of medication administration at this stage. I am more than happy to learn your pet’s routine and follow your guidance so your animal feels as comfortable and cared for as possible.

I am willing to travel up to 40km from Bassendean to help care for your furry loved ones. Home visits can include feeding, fresh water, playtime, toilet breaks, litter cleaning, cuddles and keeping your pets company. Visits can be as short as 30 minutes or longer depending on your pet’s needs and the level of company they may require. I am also happy to stay overnight to provide extra care and reassurance for pets who are more comfortable with someone around during the night.

I also offer dog walks tailored to your dog’s comfort and energy levels, ranging from 20–60 minutes or longer if preferred. I am happy to take them on their familiar walking route or, if comfortable, change up the scenery with a new walking trail. Photo updates can also be provided for peace of mind so you know your pets are safe, happy and well looked after.

I understand how important trust is when allowing someone into your home and I will always treat your home and pets with care and respect. I am happy to safely lock up your home, bring in mail or even take the bins out if needed.

I currently work FIFO on a 2:2 roster, which gives me plenty of availability and flexibility while I am home to dedicate quality time, care and attention to your pets :)
