About Olwen

Amy & I have been sitting with Rover (similar app to Pawshake) in Canada since 2018, and also on Mad Paws in Melbourne since November 22, with 100+ 5 star reviews. 

Comfortable walking the neighbourhood or caring for any size breed in your home. Have some flexibility with house sitting, drop in visits and walk bookings during the week near our Taylors Lakes home.

We have a dog and three cats at home, so cannot care for your furry friend at our place. 

Having owned several different breeds of dog over the years, we honestly like dogs more than people. We want to be able to help out others with work schedules who have you away from home a lot, or if you don't want to leave your dog at in impersonal boarding kennel while on vacation. 

- We offer walking, drop in visits to feed and walk pets 

- We are able to administer medication, pills or liquid form, basic grooming and reinforce training goals 

- We are not able to board dogs at our home 

- We can walk a maximum of 2-3 dogs at a time, unless advised that a dog is reactive or not yet fully
vaccinated 

30 min walks (please book two walks if longer is required), and will maintain your pet's usual routine when
caring for them in your home 

Olwen can work from home 5 days a week with her day job, and Amy is home full time, so we have flexibility and availability with dog care, and can provide round the clock attention. 

Available most holidays and long weekends, will block out calendar well in advance if not. 

Long walks, beach and nature hikes, and snuggles on the couch are a must. Experience working with
reactive and anxious dogs. Comfortable with dogs in heat and unneutered males. Can assist with reinforcing training goals.Vaccinated dogs only please.

Cat sitting and care for other small furry (or scaly!) animals is also possible - just let me know what your menagerie needs!

Olwen and Amy have been great with my boy Arthur, It's evident that they love animals :) Arthur is not always receptive to new people but I can see by the pictures, he was well and truly comfortable after the second walk.

Communication was consistent and clear and I received a picture and report after each walk. I would book them again if I need a dog walker. Thank you guys once again :)
