About Kris

I am a dedicated animal person with a zoology qualification and having worked as a wildlife keeper and as a vet nurse for more than twenty years.  

I have experience taking care of all kinds of different animals and you can trust that I will take excellent care of your dog, cat, bird etc.

I work from home and will happily spend the day taking care of your fur baby. I have two very friendly one year old pugs who your dog can play with.

My home is a free standing house situated on a large fully fenced section. The house is situated on a dead end street and the area is quiet and peaceful and your pet will be safe during their visit.

I am a short walk to the Edwards Park Lake which has a walking track and an off-lead area for dogs to enjoy. 

I offer day sitting (during work hours), overnight boarding (for short or long periods), housesitting (local area preferred) and home visits (once or twice a day) for small to medium sized dogs (and cats). All little guys sleep inside and are played with, cuddled and provided with treats throughout the day. There are also regular walks and visits to the dog park which are undertaken.

I have also trained numerous species of animal over the years and provide a behavioural training service. For puppies, training can include, for example: sit, stay, come, toilet training, harnessing, walking on the lead, general good manners and socialisation skills. For older dogs, training can include, for example: any of the above, barking, aggression, lead pulling, recall and socialisation. Any training is undertaken using positive reinforcement methods only. 

Looking forward to meeting both you and your pet soon!
