About Markella

I absolutely love all breeds of dogs! I would love nothing more than to provide safe and loving care for your animal.

I have grown up with animals my entire life. I have a strong interest in animal behaviour, especially dog training. I love to train dogs, using positive reinforcement methods. I enjoy reading anything related to dog training or understanding their behaviour. I believe training through play and exercise is extremely rewarding.

My husband and I own our house in Slacks Creek. My husband is a working professional and I am currently a full-time student. We both work/study from home full-time. That means we are able to provide your fur baby full time care.

We are proud parents to a beautiful chocolate Labrador Retriever named Milo and a stunning Ragdoll Cross cat named Aria.

Milo is 5 years old. He is an energetic soul who shows love to all dogs and humans. He gets extremely excited whenever he gets to meet other doggy friends. Milo has grown up and lived with other dogs too, so he is used to having company. He sometimes barks when humans arrive at the front door because he is just so excited. He loves to play and go for regular walks! Milo is desexed. He is up-to-date with all the required vaccinations as well as worming, tick and flea prevention.

Aria is a 7-year-old cat who is extremely affectionate and loving. She loves cuddles with her humans. She has been around dogs her whole life and does not mind their presence. However, she does prefer to keep to herself. Aria is strictly an indoor cat. Aria is up-to-date with all the required vaccinations as well as worming, tick and flea prevention.

We would provide your dog with access to both the inside and outside of our home. We believe animals are family. We have a large back yard which is fully fenced. Our back yard also has a pool (which is fenced in accordance with Australian regulations). Your pup would sleep inside with us - all we ask is that you provide their bedding.

I have had experience caring for many dogs over the past 8 years, ranging from family, friends and neighbours. I have always lived with animals. I have raised two puppies of my own and have been a dog owner myself for over 10 years now. I have also volunteered for the RSPCA, working in Animal Care for dogs.

I have experience in administering medication to both cats and dogs e.g. heart medication, medication for worm, flea and tick prevention, ear and eye drops and ointments. As this is our first experience using Pawshake, we will initially commence caring for small and medium sized dogs only. If you are looking to provide your dog with a safe place that feels as though they never left home, it would be an honour to service your pet.

We guarantee that your pet will be provided with many hugs, play, exercise and most importantly love. Truly a home away from home 🏠🐶 Woof!
