About Skye

I became a pet sitter because I have a great love of animals and I feel so lucky to spend time with your pets while you can enjoy your time away, stress free.

I have experience raising my two dogs from puppy age. Bella is an 12 year old maltese cross shihtzu and Pepper is a 3 year old West Highland White Terrier. Bella suffers from anxiety and requires medication daily.
I also have experience caring for my family's dogs when they travel for a month each year. They have 6 dogs called Tilly (kelpie), Harley (wolf hound), Holly (retired grey hound), and Rebel, Skipper, and Fred (Jack russels). As you can see, I have experience with a range of breeds whom all have their own needs and personalities. Though it is not strictly "pet" related, I have farming experience and ample experience with administering medications.

As well as Bella and Pepper, I also have a snake (Sohma), a betta fish (Yuno), 2 kuhli loaches (Bubbles and Lanky), and a water snail (Gary).

I am currently unable to have pets in my own home but I can offer:
• house visits
• house sitting
• dog walking


I can administer oral medications to pets as well as ear drops and eye medications. I can offer basic training based on what I've learned through training classes with my dogs.

Home visits and House sitting:
I am flexible on time spent with pets during home visits. I can spend anywhere from a couple of hours for day visits or a few days for house sitting. I am always happy to help out in any way I can in your home by bringing in the mail or watering plants. I have plenty of experience in caring for plants. Home security measures include keeping doors locked at all times as well as using alarm system when required.

Dog walks:
Dog walk length is flexible. I know some all dogs require different walks based on energy levels, breed and size. I can work with you to be able to offer the best for your pets! I can walk dogs around suburbs or to local parks depending on owner preferences.

I could not be happier with Skye and her care for our three cats while we were away. We will definitely use this service again.

Skye looked after my dog for 5 days. He is a very anxious boy and I am always anxious being away from him. She kept me updated with photos and how he was doing which helped ease my anxiety. I would recommend Skye and use her again.

Familiar with dog training techniques
I have experience training puppies and older dogs as I trained my own dogs as well as dogs belonging to my family. One of my dogs suffered from reactivity to other dogs after being attacked a few years ago. However, through training and working with her slowly and gently, she has made a lot of new dog friends.
