About Taryn

Hi, I am a previous Vet Nurse (8 yrs experience) and throughout that time both house-sat / looked after dogs and cats for clients, even taking kittens home for intensive care. I grew up with 2 dogs & 2 cats at all times so have ALWAYS been around & have an incredible soft-spot for our furry friends. 

*House visit services*

I can feed, pat, chat, play, clean litter, administer medication or routine treatments, water plants, collect mail, etc. These visits are generally between 20-45 minutes but I am flexible around your preferred routine. I am also flexible with morning, afternoon or early evening visits, depending on your preference & pets schedule. For my dog walking service, this generally entails 45-60 minutes depending on the dog's needs and capabilities.

I will send you photo/video/text updates with each visit, as I know how important that is for peace of mind, and as I know you will be missing them.

I am very thorough & responsible with all pets, and have learnt to navigate pet temperaments. I always also look out for any injuries or illness on these house visits, and monitor your pets toileting for any potential issues which I will notify you of immediately. I was also the Office Manager at 4 vet clinics, so have a wealth of knowledge in the pet field. I had my Blue Card (worked in Qld Health for 8 years) so I don't have any police records.

I have 3 kitties: Ruckus (Exotic shorthair) who is timid, loveable but not blessed with smarts; Moo Mitten the black & white quiet stallion & Peach the part-oriental chatterbox.

 I look forward to meeting your furry friend family 🐈 🐶
