UPDATE
Unfortunately, I'm moving in with my partner who is severely allergic to cats. So while it breaks my heart to do this, I will not be able to house sit for cats for the foreseeable future.
House visits are still doable, but staying for prolonged periods of time makes it harder to make sure I don't end up collecting cat fur.
I'm really sorry!

Although mainly a cat person, I do also love dogs- especially big ones! I've spent the last 11 years taking care of our family husky. Dog walking that beast is no easy task, but over the years, I've just grown accustpom to handling big, rowdy dogs. I'm not afraid of them getting a little rough when they play, and I can hold my own without being agressive with them.
With cats, I'm just as playful. Besides the 3 full grown cats of mine, I also had the habit of fostering kittens. I just love animals in general and I feel like having a pet is having a member of your family you need to give as much care and attention to as any other.
Having had cats and dogs with some health needs in the past, I completely understand and am very meticulous with whatever special needs your pets might have.
I am more than willing to walk, pet sit, and generally help out with whatever when it comes to taking care of your beloved fuzzballs-- or even the unfuzzy ones! I also love snakes and have experience in minding snakes and lizards for short periods of time.
I've moved to Melbourne, from the Philippines, and I left behind my three beloved cats and our adorable dog for the next few years while I study here. Because it would be irresponsible for me to take another pet I cannot bring back home with me when I return (and, my landlord doesn't allow pets), I want to fill the furry little gap in my heart by taking care of other people's pets.

Alek was great with our big dog Arnie. Super easy to communicate with and very adaptable to our dog’s needs.
Alek stayed at our house to look after our 11 year old staffy for four nights. Very caring and tidy, sent us regular updates with amazing pet photos, and he even went out of his way to help us water the plants. Highly recommended.
