I’ve always been a huge animal lover, and spending time with pets is something I genuinely enjoy. I have over four years of pet sitting experience and have cared for dogs, cats and a variety of small animals, including providing house sitting and pet care for longer periods while owners are away. I have a lot of experience caring for cats in their own homes, including longer stays where keeping their normal routine and making sure they feel safe and comfortable is especially important. I understand that every cat is different. Some love lots of attention and cuddles, while others are more independent and need a little time and space to come to you. I’m very patient and enjoy building their trust at their own pace, while making sure they have everything they need and plenty of company while their owners are away. I’m also a professional dog walker for a local doggy daycare, where I regularly walk a wide variety of breeds, sizes and personalities. I’m very comfortable handling different types of dogs and understanding their individual needs, energy levels and personalities. Outside of work, I also head out every day with my own dog and enjoy exploring different walking tracks, as well as venturing further afield for beach walks, bushwalks and trips to dog parks. When caring for your pets, I always take the time to follow their usual routines and tailor my care to suit them as individuals. Whether that means an energetic walk and plenty of playtime, keeping a nervous dog company, spending time with a social cat, or simply being a calm presence for a more independent pet, I want them to feel safe, relaxed and happy while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with lots of photos and videos, so you can see how they’re doing and enjoy little moments from their time with me. I understand that pets are family, and I’ll care for yours with the same love, patience and attention that I give my own. My goal is for your pets to feel comfortable, happy and well cared for, while giving you complete peace of mind that they’re in experienced and caring hands. I genuinely treat every pet as if they were my own, and I always aim to make sure both pets and owners feel completely at ease from start to finish
