I’ve had a lifelong involvement in natural therapies (professional practice and education) for both humans and animals using a number of different modalities.

Please note: My default address for this site says Emerald Beach (my mailing address) but I am available to house and pet sit for longer periods from the NSW Central Coast to the Queensland border.

BRIEFLY ABOUT ME:
I also have extensive hospitality experience - I’ve run restaurants, managed holiday accommodation and done related general property maintenance.
I have quite specialised animal skills and I’m able to take care of a wide range of companion and livestock - from cats and dogs, guinea pigs, aquariums, chickens, ducks, geese, to cattle and goats, ponies and miniature horses.
I'm comfortable with administering injections and any medications/grooming/special dietary needs and experienced in interacting with guardian animals - alpacas, donkeys and Maremma. I can also milk goats..

I have current police checks/clearance and references on other sites I can refer you to ...

*** SPECIAL NOTE ***
I do travel with my English Toy Terrier Ella (that’s her in my profile pictures).
I do understand that this might be an issue for some people but can provide references for her if required.
Ella is an incredibly well behaved little lady - she was brought up with older dogs, cats and poultry and doesn't chase/harass or make a nuisance of herself. She has no issues being around other dogs/cats and makes friends with other animals. Ella is fully house - trained and uses a cat door or asks to go outside. I’m very blessed to have her as my companion.
