Peter

My dear wife and I live quite central in Kangaroo Flat, and we are very experienced pet sitters.

We have had a number of our own dogs over the years as well as cats. In recent years we have been house sitting in homes and farms from Adelaide to Brisbane. A total of 36 so far and we have many animal friends all over the east coast. We have no pets of our own now

and delight in making pets feel at home.

We are happily retired and spend almost all our time at home.

We treat all animals with respect and care for them exactly as instructed. I enjoy walking, generally along the Bendigo Creek Trail and often cover over 10km per day.

I do not expect your dog to join me in my full fitness routine.

We have a small but totally secure back yard and a doggy door into the house, which is a bonus if the dog has been trained to use.

Our guest

dogs are welcomed as part of our family and live inside with us.

We do not have cages or fenced off dog runs.

We have a nice park directly over the road for walks on leashes.

We delight in looking after any well mannered small or medium dog but do not do fighting dogs (pit bulls,rottweiller etc).

If you have an unspayed female, unneutered dog,

or a pet needing medication we would like full information before we accept.

We do like animals and they like us.

We are very experienced, quite flexible and totally reliable and will take very good care of your cat or dog.

Most animals find us quite easy to train and we have the time to devote to them.

We can also visit your home to feed and care for your cat or other small animals.

Please note that Pawshake rates for overnight are for 24 hours.
