Hello! I'm Joanne, I live in the northern suburbs of Melbourne. I'm a social worker, I love reading, exploring, beach days and catching up with friends. I love all animals but I love the personalities of cats the best. I started cat sitting on Pawshake a few years ago when my little cat son passed. I've since found a bunch of lovely regulars I take care of and have become very attached to and I've welcome my little Delilah into my home as well 🐈‍⬛. Cat sitting - My service includes a visit to your cat/s at your house for up to an hour per visit. I will play with them, feed, clean the litter and give lots of kitty cuddles and attention if they want it. I am a plant lover - so can take care of yours as needed. Happy to bring in mail, open blinds, close blinds etc. I like to have a brief chat beforehand, where I meet your cat/s, get the run down and get to know you a little and ensure you are comfortable with me as well. I have some experience giving oral medication, but would prefer to discuss this on a case by case basis. I like to send a report card each time I visit. I'm also happy to send updates and photos as agreed. I know how much we can worry about our pets when we're away. 😊 I live in Reservoir and prefer to care within a 30 min radius of this area, but open to discuss if you're a bit further away. I offer 1x home visits during the week and 2x visits on the weekend - but can be flexible with this so please enquire. (I work all over the place so depends where I am, I am always happy to help!). Please check out my reviews. I also use cat sitters so I appreciate the authenticity of reviews in my decision making!
