Do you need to go away for a few days, do you want to go camping on the weekend or are you simply working long hours, leaving your dog alone at home alone for too long?

I have a passion and deep love for animals, having spent a lot of my youth on a farm with horses, cows, pigs, chickens and dogs. I have looked after other people's animals for many years, mainly friends and acquaintances. I have also delivered Jack Russell puppies on a number of occasions in a midwife like role.

 I am now seeking to expand this activity to meet new people and new animals, to bring joy into animal's lives and peace of mind for people. I am a very active person, who loves walking and the outdoors, so your dog will get plenty of exercise and fun while being conscious of our hot climate. I prefer cycling for transport (to leave a small footprint on the environment), hence the restriction of the areas of service. 

On a typical visit I would spend 1 hour with your animals, including feeding, playing, cuddles. I am happy to attend to other things that need doing at the time, such as watering plants, putting out/in bins or taking the mail in. If dog walking is also desired I would take your dog/s for a minimum of 30 min walk. Cats don't usually appreciate walks and may not want that much attention, so time spent will depend on the nature of the cat, if you only have cat/s. Other types of animals can also be accomodated, although I would need to get some firm instructions if you have snake pets.

I am a biomedical scientist from my background and confident to administer oral and injectable medication that you provide and to the schedule provided by you.

I am happy to visit any time of the day, however, for anything involving exercise for your dog I prefer the cooler times of the day, morning and afternoon, in the interest of the dogs as well as my own. 

I will meet with you and your animal/s prior to providing the service. 

For doggy day care and boarding I will also need you and your dog to meet with my dog and any other dogs staying with us at the time, in your presence. My dog is very friendly and obedient and very used to other dogs coming to visit our home, stay for the day and overnight. We have a large yard with plenty of room to play, check out the gallery for other doggie fun facilities.
