About Ben

Hi Everyone,

My name is Ben and I'll be looking after your pets and home with Catriona my partner (two for the price of one!).

Catriona and I are pet lovers, and have grown up surrounded by dogs, cats, rabbits and even a pet bird at one stage. We love animals of all shapes, sizes, ages and personalities. We are highly experienced house/ pet sitters, having just completed a 5 month house and dog sit in Mosman Park, followed by another 5 week pet sit (references can happily be provided, and we have been booked in for further sessions with both individuals).

We aim to minimise the disruption for your pets as much as possible, so will aim to maintain the continuity of their existing walk/ feeding routines, whether that's a highly energetic young border collie needing 3 hours of exercise a day, or an older dog that requires a slower way of life.

I work in Corporate Finance for a firm in the city that have a very flexible work from home policy, and Catriona works at the Mount Hospital twice a week with Pilates teaching on days around this. This means that there is never a day when your pets won't have one of us around, as I work from home on any day Cat is in the hospital.

In terms of caring for your house we are happy looking after and maintaining all areas, both indoor and out. Having grown up working on a farm I am a fairly practical person, and love gardening. In our last house sit we also kept an eye on the swimming pool (emptying the baskets weekly, topping up the acid levels and taking samples to the pool shop). We pride ourselves on leaving the house spotless for your return.

Many thanks,

Ben

Ben was great! Easily contactable and responsive. Our cats were happy and healthy when we returned and our house was just as we left it too. Thank you Ben and Cat :)
