Caring and dependable house sitter with a genuine love of animals. I'll ensure your pets are happy, exercised, and well cared for while you're away, and care for your home as well. I adore both cats and dogs and love getting to know their quirky personalities, sharing cuddles and adventures, and making sure they're happy, safe and spoiled with attention while you're away. I grew up on a farm and have had dogs, cats, and other pets for most of my life in New Zealand, but I moved to Melbourne in 2025 and don't have my own pets here, and I miss having them around. I have been a home-owner and had pets in the past so I understand how important it is to know your pets and house are being thoroughly and respectfully cared for so you can relax while you're away. I am responsible and fine with administering medication your pet might need as well. I'm happy to provide whatever level of updates and contact you'd like. I am a full time house sitter with 5-star references, and I am self employed so am available to spend a lot of time with your pet. I love going out for walks and getting to know Melbourne and would love some doggy company while doing so! I'm also happy to chill out at home with your cat or dog and give them lots of cuddles (or maintain an appropriately aloof-but-nearby distance, if that's what they prefer). In my free time I write, read, and draw. I'm clean and tidy and will always leave your home as you left it for when you return, knowing it has been cared for as well as your pets.
