About Pippa

Hi pet owners! I'm Pippa, I grew up on a farm in the English countryside surrounded by dogs, cats & horses, as well as a few chickens and lots of cows. I moved to Australia in March 2020 and I'm missing being around animals! Having grown up on a farm I have plenty of experience caring for animals, in 2020 I completed 3 months on a horse stud in Scone, NSW, caring for horses plus some cats & dogs too. 

I'm currently working full time as a Senior Events Coodinator, but I'm only in the office a couple of days a week, so I'm available throughout the week when working from home, and some weekends depending on my plans! I'd be happy to stay at your home with your pets all day or overnight as required. If I'm staying at your home I will live there for the duration of the booking if required, walk the dog in your local area and only leave the pet alone for short periods as agreed.  

The animals you see in my photos are some of my pets from home in the UK, as well as some I've met on my travels or looked after through Pawshake, I don't own any pets here in Sydney (yet!). 

I live with my partner in a 2 bedroom apartment with 2 balconies, a front garden and a large back garden area. It is a medium sized flat with plenty of space for your pets to stay, there is a back yard completely away from the street, so pets can be outdoors in a nice, secure area. We also have a big car so can do pick up/drop off if required, I will ask a small fee for journeys longer than 15 minutes.

As long as your pets are good together I'd be more than happy to look after 2 or 3 in my own home or visit your home to do the same. I am an animal lover, if I see a dog or cat in the street I have to stop and say hello, so your pets will be well looked after and given the best treatment, whether it's at my home or yours. 

I especially love going on walks with the dogs, when I first came to Australia I’d walk my aunt and uncle's dogs (border collies) daily along the coast!

My services include: pet sitting at my home as well as dog walking, pet sitting at your home, checking on pets. My home visits and walks can be brief (minimum 30 minutes), just to check on the pet, or as long as needed for an evening, day or overnight.

At my home I will provide:

- At least 1 photo per house visit or homestay. 

- Regular contact with you regarding any changes with the pet or emergencies. 

- Feeding as required (you will provide the animal's food).

- Fresh water. 

- An outside area for your pet to use the toilet.

- Regular walks/exercise for your pet as agreed.

- A secure backyard. 

Service inclusions: 

- Dogs will have plenty of space to move & will go for at least 1 walk for at least 1 hour (as agreed). 

- The environment will be a safe space for the dog with no risk of injury. 

- My home and backyard has plenty of shade and cool areas for hot days.

I look forward to meeting your furry friends!
