About Tina

About me

I am a retired woman in my 50s (retired early due to health issues). I live in a house which is in a enclosed courtyard setting.

I enjoy the company of pets, whether they are sitting on my lap watching a movie or when going for a walk. I am close to a walking track and a dog park. On occasion, I like to go to different places for my walks so it gives the dogs an opportunity to smell new smells. I usually walk between 4000 to 12000 steps a day, (unless it is raining), this is usually broken down into morning & afternoon walks. 

I would be happy to send photos to you of your pet, so you can see they are being well taken care of.

My experience

I have enjoyed looking after other peoples pets for a while now. I've looked after my daughter's pets (the grandbabies) whilist she is at work, I have done this on and off for over 15 years now, this has included; overnight "babysitting", daily visits were I take them for walks and provide lots of cuddles and spoiling. When required, I have administered medication.

I've looked after Oscar & Trixie for 3 months whilst their family relocated. I still go & visit them a few times a week for a walk & cuddle and when their family goes away, I take care of them. Also, I recently cared for Sweetie & Zoey, for a month.

Preferences

  • I prefer small to medium size dogs as that is easier for me to manage. 
  • Well mannered and toilet trained.
  • Ideally, up to date with vaccinations.
  • I would take good care of your loved pets, as I know how special they are.

    If you would like a copy of the images or short videos I take of your pet ,during their stay. please bring a USB stick & I would be happy to give it to you.

    Tina did a wonderful job taking care of my cat while I was away. Tina posted photos each day and it was clear that Barney was comfortable and happy. As a bonus the plants got some water too!

    I have had pets of my own over the years. I help look after my daughters dogs whilst she is at work on occasion. I have recently started to take fosters in to care for short term. I looked after Trixie & Oscar for 3 months & I still visit them during the week for walks, & occasional care whilst the family is away for work. I looked after Sweetie & Zoey for 3 weeks, whilst their family were getting prepared to go to overseas. I am a registered member of a foster dog organisation. I have attended, some of the classes they have on offer to help you with basic training & general care of dogs. * Care of the pets I have looked after includes - feeding - walking - bathing - cuddling - playing - occasionally giving medication .
