About Kirsten

I am a qualified Veterinary Nurse, holding a Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing, as well as a Certificate II in Animal Studies, which I completed in 2018. I have experience working in veterinary clinics and animal shelters, where I’ve cared for animals with a wide range of temperaments, medical needs and behavioural challenges.

I’ve grown up surrounded by animals my entire life and have owned a variety of pets, both big and small, giving me over 20 years of hands-on experience in animal care. This background has allowed me to develop a strong ability to read body language, build trust with nervous animals and provide calm, respectful care tailored to each individual pet.

I’ve been running my own pet care business for over 1.5 years, offering services such as dog walking, pet sitting, nail trims and in-home care. I’m confident administering medications safely, performing low-stress nail trims and supporting pets who may feel anxious or overwhelmed.

I hold a full Australian driver’s licence and have my own reliable vehicle, allowing me to transport pets when needed or take them out for enriching destination walks. I always prioritise safety, comfort and wellbeing in every service I provide.

Originally from Northern Ireland, I’ve lived in Australia since 2009 and am an Australian citizen. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and I’m passionate about providing professional, compassionate and fear-free care to every pet I look after.
