About me:

*On Maternity leave mid Jan - May*

I am very passionate about animals and have 3 cats as well as a 4yr old White Swiss Shepherd of my own at home. I work full-time, have been pet sitting for 5 years and have my Cert IV in Veterinary Nursing. I grew up on a farm and looked after a variety of animals such rabbits, cats, dogs, birds and fish in my lifetime. I have my own vehicle and full drivers’ licence which makes me flexible to travel to your location and fur babies for whatever your needs are at the time whether its house sitting or day visits. I am a reliable and responsible person and have a police clearance.

What I Offer:

I would love to look after your pets when needed to take the stress off you when you’re in need of a holiday or an unexpected trip away. Whilst you are gone, I would care for and treat them as if they were my own to ensure they wouldn’t be short of love and affection. I am confident in medicating animals, cleaning wounds etc where needed after surgical procedures and watching them after. I am flexible with my availability, day visits or home visits or whatever the needs of yourself are at the time.

I can send daily updates and photos of your fur babies whilst you are away either through the app or text to keep you informed.

Day Visits:

I offer both once or twice a day visits depending on the needs of yourself and your fur babies. I will pop in prior to work in the morning and again in the evening or just in the evening if once a day. During the visit I generally will stay 15-30minutes at a time (longer if I have no other commitments) and feed, medicate, change litter tray’s, provide fresh water as well as play and give lots of pats.

Housesitting:

Much like day visits however due to work commitments I am unable to stay 24/7. Prior to work I will feed, provide fresh water, medicate and have a play. After work I will return to clean litter trays, play, walk if necessary and provide dinner and cuddles before bedtime.

I am also able to take bins out, bring mail in and water plants as necessary whilst you are away.
