Hi my name is Shirley. My husband and I are both professionals. My husband works from home. We don’t have any kids. We live in a house that has a fully fenced backyard with our 6 year old fur baby Oreo. She is Maltese cross shih tzu.
We’d love to have another dog to play with our Oreo but not ready yet to have a second one. So we’d love to look after yours while you are away. We’d treat him or her like our own. Our house is very relaxed. There are no restrictions. Oreo likes to sleep on the sofa during the day. And yours will be welcomed to do whatever they are used to do at home. If yours are used to sleep in bed with you at home he or she can share our bed with us. Of course if he or she sleeps in their own bed we’d follow that as well.
Our Oreo gets two walks a day, and as my husband works from home he takes her to Frenchs Forest Show Ground (a leash free dog park) a few times a week as well. When I get home from work we’ll have a play session in our backyar. She gets plenty of exercises so would yours. As you can see from my pictures we take Oreo out all the time, whereever dogs are allowed. We hardly leave her home by herself.
We will only have small dogs and would only take one in at anytime to make sure they get lots of attention, cuddles and love they deserve.
I make healthy biscuits at home for Oreo and her guest. Please let me know if there’s anything that your dog can’t have.
I love taking pictures so you'd get lots of pictures and updates every day, unless you tell me not to.
I have looked after my neighbor’s and friends‘ dogs, and also helped a women needing free dog sitting. Her dog needed medication and I did that for her and mastered it. that was a year ago since then I’ve looked after her two dogs so many times for free. We do enjoy having another dog in the house. So we look forward to looking after yours while you are away, rest asure your fur friend will be well looked after.
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
Thanks to Shirley, Scott and Oreo for taking such great care of our Rosie over Christmas. Rosie was so well cared for with twice daily walks and never ending attention. Thanks also for sending regular photos of Rosie’s activities- she had a great time and we felt comfortable she was in great hands. Will be booking again next time we need a dog sitter for Rosie.
Shirley, Scott & Oreo were just FABULOUS from start to finish. Thank you guys!!! They looked after our wee boy Mac so well. They were attentive to Mac throughout, they kept in contact with us through messages, photos & videos of Mac during his stay with them, so we were confident & happy that Mac was being well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Shirley & Co to look after your dog & I’m sure Mac would welcome the opportunity to stay with them again!! Thank you everyone.
