Over the years we've also had many small pets including dwarf bunnies, hermit crabs, rhinoceros Beatles, stick insects, fish, and a bearded dragon...yes, we're those crazy animal lovers! I adore spending time with animals and I would be honored to look after your furbabies, and realize the responsibility and trust that goes into caring for someone else's beloved pets. I have a current police check, working with children check, and can provide references on request.

I have done pet sitting for a couple years now and along the way I have looked after so many beautiful animals. I am a vet nurse and am still studying. I have worked with animals for years now, dog boarding, doggy daycare/grooming and now work at a vet clinic. I love to look after animals and treat them as if they were my own. I can be very flexible when it comes to looking after your pets. I am a very dedicated person when looking and caring for animals, I always make sure to ensure smooth communication between owners and will always keep you in the loop. I have a big heart for animals and enjoy spending time with my fury friends and enjoy updating you owners of your beautiful pets.
Services I offer is House/Pet sitting. I am free most of the time with occasional weekends away but my calendar will show when I am available. When I am house sitting I am always there at night/staying the night, there is some days I will be at work for 8hrs but will always come back to the house to feed/walk/accompany the pet. I can administer medication very well and will always communicate with the owner re the medication. I can stay at the owners home for however long they request and always make sure to clean and tidy the place before leaving the property as well as securing the home.
Please don't hesitate to reach out if you think I would be suited for looking after your pet/pets! :)

Hi,I'm a fit, mature, active local of Ferntree Gully available on Mondays &amp; Tuesdays and some weekends o walk your dog.I have trained my three&nbsp; dogs up to a high level of obedience so I have tons of experience with different types of personalities and ages.My pet hate is seeing dogs walking their owners. Having been through this myself I know how uncomfortable and dangerous it can be to have a dog that pulls you along. This is what got me into dog training. My first dog, at 6 months old, was the size of a small horse. I realised that "google" training just wasn't cutting it and dedicated 2 years to his obedience.&nbsp;Currently I am available on Mondays and Tuesdays to walk and train local dogs.I'm very safety conscious and hyper aware of other dogs. I did a lot of specialised training with rescue dogs that were unsociable and aggressive also. The course trained us in dogs pre aggression tells, that is the signs that dogs can display prior to an attack. This can include; tail wagging, panting, eyes darting, locking of lips, a change in gait, posture changes etc.Your dog will be safe with me and that's the most important thing when you are entrusting your dog with someone else.I also want to make my services affordable. It breaks my heart to hear of the dog shelters getting full of dogs now everyone is back at work.Personally I have 3 rescue dogs who have brought much joy, fun and laughter into my life.

About me:
Hello, my name is Georgia. I'm local around Knoxfield. I'm currently studying to become a nurse and I have decided to do this as a side job to earn some extra pocket money, as I love being around animals. 
I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown even more as I've grown up. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. Being around dogs I want to be able to build trust with the animal and make them feel comfortable at all times. I love walking my dog daily and I have lots of experience with lots of different dogs (being able to approach dogs, dog fight situation, dogs running away, etc). 
I'm a friendly and reliable animal lover and would love nothing more than to love and adore your pets. I promise to treat your fur babies just like my own, they are guaranteed to receive plenty of love and attention. I send frequent updates and pictures of all the good fun we get up to, so you can feel at ease with their care and being apart from them🫶🏽
Dog walking: 
I am very flexible with the lengths of walks, and will follow along with the timings discussed when contacted. My average walk varies around 30 mins - 1 hr based on what the owner likes and what suits the specific pet. My number one priority is your dogs safety, please know on hot days or if I feel your dog is struggling, walking times will be adjusted accordingly. I will communicate this through to you when doing so
I would love to walk your dogs, please feel free to contact me via the app, I look forward to hearing from you all🫶🏽

Hi, I’m Kane! I’ve always had a strong connection with animals, and I know how important it is for them to feel safe and comfortable when their owners are away. That’s why I focus on caring for pets in their own homes — so they can stay in a familiar environment with their usual routines, smells, and comforts.

I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats and have many years of experience looking after pets for family and friends. From lively pups that love long walks and playtime, to senior cats that need a little extra patience and care, I truly enjoy spending time with animals of all ages and temperaments.

My motivation to become a pet sitter comes from my love for animals and my desire to give owners peace of mind. I know leaving pets behind can feel stressful, so I make it my mission to ensure they receive the same love, attention, and care I’d give my own.

I’m reliable, responsible, and dedicated to keeping pets happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away — whether that’s feeding, walking, playtime, or simply keeping them company.


&nbsp;Hi everyone! I'd love for you to call me Sam! (female)&nbsp;
A little about me!&nbsp;
I grew up in New Zealand with an array of furry friends, from dogs, cats, mice, rats, chooks, fish, birds and horses.
I am the one that attends to the ‘broken’ ones that nobody else wanted. I loved them all.
From a very early age, I always had a way with animals, like a deep understanding of whatthey felt, what they wanted. They were my go to when I needed someone to talkto. This has led me later in life, to Reiki and Intuitive Healing, and Inter-species communication.
I have worked with many rescues, including Greyhounds, as well as rescued wild animals, and those still living free. This now includes approximately 20 species of animals, from around the globe.
The information received has been confirmed by pet owners, and via X-Rays in wild animals, as being accurate.
&nbsp;I lived on a farm for 9 years, having further experience with both cows and sheep.&nbsp;
My life wouldn’t be what it is today without furry companions by my side. Animals complete me.&nbsp;
I currently live with my two cats, Puma (a rescue), and Luna, (my Covid saving grace.)&nbsp;
&nbsp;
What can I offer for you and your beloved pets?&nbsp;
I will come to your home, up to twice a day. (More per our arrangement for those animals in need of high care and love) All animals will be greeted with love, pats, and cuddles.&nbsp;&nbsp;
As I have an insight into how animals feel, I will allow timid and or rescues to come to me when they are comfortable, rather than pushing them. It doesn’t usually take long, unless they have experienced severe trauma. It’s all about building trust, and for them to feel safe.&nbsp;&nbsp;
I will feed them as per your instructions; change water bowls daily, and brush if requested. I will clean up any doggy or kitty DoDo’s if needed. Time permitting; I will have a quick play in your yard with your dog, or inside stimulus with your pet.&nbsp;
&nbsp;I offer Dog walking on lead, as an additional service. I also offer to take iPhone photos or short videos of your furry family and send to you for peace of mind that they are settled, looked after, and loved.&nbsp;
If there were any emergencies, I would take them to your vet of choice, after a phone call to you to talk things through, or any other arrangements that you may have put in place.
I am happy to give medication where needed, if your animal is easy to administer, otherwise let me know your tricks to make it successful. I have only done needling on sheep, so I'm not really experienced with injecting medications, however I am happy to learn.
If I am walking your Dog, I am happy to encourage basic commands as per your instruction. I usually get a dog to sit, before crossing roads. (My cats also sit before I put their evening meal out ha ha)&nbsp;
I am also happy to water any indoor plants if needed, and collect any mail.&nbsp;
I have been pet sitting (including rescues) and dog walking privately for a number of years, and can provide feedback by previous clients if needed.&nbsp;&nbsp;
I have walked dogs from 8 kgs to 54 kg, and everything in-between.&nbsp;
I have also helped with the re-homing of a Wolf Hound X, as her owners could no longer look her after. I am happy to say that Molly now has a lovely home and family she can call her own.&nbsp;&nbsp;
I am very down to Earth, honest, reliable and trustworthy person. What you see, is what you get. Just ask you pet! ;)&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Love to hear from you, if you think I may be a great fit you both yourself, and especiallyyour furry babies.&nbsp;
Sam
