Hello! My name's Louise and I am a Kiwi expat living in Melbourne. After a recent hiatus, I'm back on Pawshake and offering pet care services for dogs and puppies, cats and kittens, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, mice and other small mammals, birds, fish, snakes, bearded dragons, turtles and other reptiles.

I am responsible, respectful and tidy. I enjoy exercising, reading, and exploring Melbourne's food scene. Did I mention I love animals of all shapes and sizes?

I've had lots of different animals throughout my life and currently live with a sweet 10-year-old mini daschund, Harvey. I've also house- and pet-sat for many of my friends and family, so rest assured your fur (or non-fur) babies will be in good hands - I have heaps of love to give!

House visit: Includes feeding and watering, play time and cuddles, cleaning up litter/letting your pet go to the toilet, cleaning/tidying up any mess, bringing in any mail, along with photo and video updates of your pet every day so you know they're happy. Also more than happy to water any plants and take out the rubbish for you.

House sitting: Same as the above - only it's a sleepover! 

Doggy day care: I work from home most of the time during the week, in a two-bedroom apartment with a well-sized balcony. Based in Collingwood, with lots of nearby green spaces, streets and parks to walk. Would your pet like to be my WFH buddy?

All bookings require a meet-and-greet beforehand so I can meet you, your pet(s), get familiar with where everything is, including entrances and exits. This is for my safety and for yours too. Meet-and-greets are free of charge.

I'm looking forward to meeting you and your pets! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.
