Hi, I'm Louise, I'm a true dog lover who lives in an apartment myself on Claremont St. South Yarra. I used to have a dog and when I came to Australia in 2014 I had to give it to someone else. Since then I realized it's such a big responsibility so I haven't got a dog after that because I can't give them good company. I am a full-time bank worker who works from Monday to Friday 8:45 am to 5:15 pm and have weekends and public holidays off. When I'm not working I like to stay home watch some TV and go out for a walk.
The places I normally walk are Fawkner Park, Yarra River Trail, and Botanic Garden. Being a dog sitter I can spend some good time with your loved ones and we can also enjoy the walks together.
About my services:
The services I can offer:
Dog walk - either a leash or off leash, in Fawkner Park, Como Park Dog Off Leash Area, and so on there are a lot of choices for a dog walk which are all very close to where I live. Depending on your dog I am motivated to do this as an exercise for myself as well.
Daycare - During the weekends and public holidays I normally relax at home, it's a good company to have your pet spend the day with me. However, I live in an apartment with no outdoor area so your pet will stay in the living area only. It would only be suitable when your pet is okay for an indoor environment, is well-trained, and won't pee indoors.
Boarding - I'm also happy to spend the night time with your pet as long as the next day is not a working day so that I can make some effort to look after them during the night as well. That would be Friday nights, Saturday nights, and the nights before public holidays.
Things I can do:
I can administer medication to pets. I'm not scared of them because I had a dog before as long as they are not aggressive.
2 pets can be looked after at the same time as long as they won't fight with each other.
My dog walks normally start from one hour because I normally walk 1 - 3 hours if I'm walking by myself and depending on your needs it can be either shorter or longer.
1 - 2 walks are offered per day because generally, a dog needs to go toilet twice a day as a minimum but it can be specified by you. By doing that the dog will not go toilet indoors.
How much time I can spend with pets:
I normally don't go out except when I need to buy some food. If I need to go out to buy some food I can take the dog with me to the Woolie South Yarra or Aldi Prahran. Or I'll go myself quickly and be back within one hour.
Even though without a pet, I still spend almost all the time either at home or going out for a walk so it is a perfect job for me to be a pet sitter.
I am not working from home so normally am free and available every weekend and on public holidays.
I can supervise pets 24/7 only from Friday evening 6 p.m. until Sunday evening 9 p.m.
What is my home like?
I live by myself, with no family no roommate no kid or pet.
The pets can sleep in the living area.
I don't have a backyard, I only have a half-opened small balcony area in which dogs can jump out.
