About Mandy

Please read*
I am only able to take certain animals at my house for boarding. 
Mostly pocket pets and senior pets.

There is access to a large yard (clam shell for those water lovers!) 
I unfortunately cannot take any chewers/diggers (as there is access to gardens, couches and chairs etc) 
Small, older dogs will be able to stay inside - I do have a curious, dog friendly cat who lives inside. Pets must be good with cats, although I will ensure full supervision and separation. Large cages for sleeping will be ideal if you have them. 

Grew up on a farm in country victoria. I have been around animals large and small all my life. I was a daily horse rider in my younger years.

I Am also a qualified veterinary nurse of over 13 years, currently working full-time in a busy ASAVA accredited Vet hospital.
I can do pet sitting on my holidays and days off. These do vary so will need dates. I am home most weekends. 

I am capable of administering any medications and comfortable with all species and temperaments.
Before small animal nursing, I worked on various horse properties and horse hospitals.

I own a rescue cat of my own, a very curious black cat named Phoenix. I also have a 10year old bearded dragon formally known as Handsome Steve!
So I am also capable of caring for reptiles.

My own dog was a rescue rottweiler from a bad home, who was very timid in the beginning and with many strangers so I understand how to treat nervous pets. She is sadly is no longer with us.

I have puppy school training experience and minimal grooming experience. 

I live with my husband (also an animal lover) and we have his kids every second weekend. 

I know how much your fur babies mean to you, as mine are to me.
 I promise to care for them as if they were my own <3

Mandy was exceptional with our dog. It was the first time we used a dog sitting service and are very happy we chose Mandy. She provided updates on every visit, and our dog was very comfortable her

We will definitely hire Mandy again.
