Paul

Hi my name's Paul,

I'm originally from Ireland but have travelled a lot with my partner. We've recently moved to West End after spending 3 years in Hong Kong.

Because we travel so much it doesn't suit us to have a full-time pet of our own, although I did have a Yorkshire Terrier named Toby for 18 years when I lived in Ireland. He was the best! I do however have an aquarium with 4 shrimp who have since had a lot of babies, so now I'm a proud dad :).

I can look after vaccinated or unvaccinated pets, and more than capable of taking on the most energetic pup!

I have a love for all animals and I've found that they seem to like me too. I have minded dogs, cats, and occasionally rats and a ferret before I came to Australia.

We live in a spacious ground floor 100m² apartment with decent outdoor space not a massive garden but not a small balcony either. We are also within walking distance of a dog park.

Some Key points:

● I taught Toby some basic tricks while growing up, I’d be happy to try and pass them on but can’t make any promises.

● I’ve experience administering oral medication as Toby suffered from epilepsy and had a skin allergy. So we had to give him 2 pills daily, which he wasn’t a fan of but wrapping them in ham did the trick! 

● I can look after up to 3 dogs per day.

● I am flexible with how many dog walks are needed. I’ve got 2 legs and am fit and healthy, let me know what's good for your pup and I'll do my best to accommodate. Ther’s a dog park up the road and plenty of walking room along the river right by where I live!

● I currently work from home so they’d be under my supervision all day!

● we are on the ground floor and our backyard is reasonably sized to run around in.

● As mentioned, I’m currently Freelance and working from home so I am pretty flexible with times.

● If you’ve got a trip coming up I can look after your pets over the weekend or if with enough notice during the week also.

● Pets would sleep in our front room or home office, whichever they feel more comfortable in!

● Our outside space is not huge but it’s not small either. It’s on the ground floor, fully fenced and perfect for a small to mid sized dog to run around.

● I’m usually available and in the mornings and the evenings but with enough notice I’m flexible mornings, afternoons and evenings

● If you’re pet feels more comfortable in their own surroundings I’m happy to do home visits as long as I can plug in my laptop😊. Any plant pets that need fed or a package that needs signed for, happy to do that too!

● If you need house sitting services. I can be flexible for you needs just ask! Any safety protocols you need I’d be happy to implement while you’re away from home.

If you'd like to know more about me, please don't hesitate to drop me a message :).
