Nadia

Hi, I'm Nadia! 😊 I'm a professional female working in Project Management in Local Government in Brisbane City, who absolutely ADORES cats & doggos ❤ In my spare time, I teach University level business courses, volunteer at RSPCA, and pet sit 😄

Why I pet-sit:

My current lifestyle doesn't allow me to have any pets and being a single professional, I have a lot of free time which I can dedicate to doing things I love, such as looking after your fur babies❤

My Experience:

- I have been pet sitting professionally for a year

- I volunteer at RSPCA every Sunday as an Animal Care Assistant mostly caring for dogs waiting to be adopted by a loving family

- Growing up we had several cats and chickens so I have grown up around animals ❤

My experience with Dogs:🐶

Age: Puppies to senior

Size: Small to large

Number: I have cared for 2 dogs at a time in a pet owners home, and able to walk only 2 at once. The sum of the dogs' weight must be less than mine if I am to win a tug of war

My experience with Cats:🐈

Age: Kittens to seniorSize: small to FAT

Number: I have cared for 13 cats at once (not kidding) and am yet to walk a cat

My Strengths:🌻

Communication: I speak fluent cat & dog. Also pretty reliable with sending a morning & evening daily update with pictures to their humans

Reliability: I've never cancelled a confirmed sit

Pooper Scooper Extraordinaire: Everybody poops, but can everybody pick it up? Not going to name names here, but I've picked up some pretty soft mushy poop off the grass.Cleanliness: I like to keep a tidy house

My Weaknesses: 🙏🏼

Medication: Whilst I can expertly hide a pill or crushed tablet in food, I'm not confident in giving injections.

Chocolate: Absolutely no chance of any chocolate being left over for your pet to mistakenly eat

Cuddle monster: May give your fur baby too many cuddles that by the end of the pet sit, they're over it and need a break from Nadia 😍

How does Pawshake work?

Pet Sitting: a pet sit is usually an overnight stay in your home with your pet(s).

- I will normally spend the entire day with your pets in your home (while working from home) ensuring they are fed and walked (if applicable) as advised by you.

- Dog walking is included in the pet sitting fee

- As long as I am provided with clean beddings, I do not mind your fur babies sharing the bed with me

- I am happy to bring in your mail, take out/bring in the bin on bin day and water your plants during the pet sit

House Visits: a house visit can be a visit once or twice a day to feed and walk (if applicable) your pet while you are away.

- A house visit means that you do not require me to stay overnight in your home with your pets

- Dog walking is included in my house visiting rates

- If you would like extended house visits so your pets have some quality time with me, please feel free to discuss

How can you book me?

Please select the service you require for approximate dates, and send me a message! I will then be able to exchange my phone contact details with you to organise a meet-and-greet to discuss your requirements & see if I could be the perfect sitter for you! 😄

Please note: Referees are available if you would like to speak to a family I have previously pet-sat for. A current Police Check is also available.👍🏼

Cheers!

Nadia❤
