About Barbara

Hi,

I am a french PhD student in Neurosciences at the Queensland Brain Institut in Saint Lucia. I live in Auchenflower with 2 housemates who also adores pets. One of my housemate has an 8 year old Schnoodle named Rocky. He is really friendly with other dogs.

We are living at the ground floor of a queenslander house which has a big balcony and a fenced background perfect for doggos to play safely in.

The house has also a secured entry so the doggies will not be able to run out. 2 parks are located 10min walking from home.

I had a dog (whippet) as a companion since I was 10. My parents have now another whippet named Enigma (He is so cute and smart!). Having a paw companion while being young made me love all 4 legged companions. Back in France I used to regularly go running with the dogs and take care of them. I was taking dogs for big walks and runs, feeding them, cleaning after them, taking them to the vet.

I am working as a researcher, so I can be pretty flexible regarding my schedule if I am advised few days in advance (some of my experiences are planned 2 weeks ahead, usually they are running on Thursday).Thursday is a busy day at work so on this day I would be available only in the evening; other days I can arrange my schedule more easily.

During week days, I can do up to 2 walks of 30min and during weekends no limit of frequency or duration. For home visits, during week days, I can stay at least 30min to 1h-1h30 depending on owner's home location (if it is far from Saint Lucia or not). During home visits, I can make a quick walk, give water and food and play a moment with the dog. I can also adapt myself to the owner's specific requirements.

We can arrange the sleeping place according to the dog's habits, it could be in the living room, in the bedroom or outside.

When I arrived to Australia, I really missed the presence of a dog at home, so I subscribed here to be able to interact with dogs and take care of them while helping owners. I will come with pleasure at your place to take care of your buddy or have her/him at my place and take her/him for daily walks. Looking forward to cuddle some doggies!!

Daisy loved her stay at Barbara's house. Everyone got along well (other dogs and people) and Daisy had lots of attention and cuddles. Highly recommended.
