A warm hello and welcome to my profile.

Please make sure you read through my profile before contacting me, there is important information included that you need to be aware of.

I am an experienced, mature, reliable full time sitter with a real love for animals of all shapes and sizes. I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, fish and rodents and have, at some stage, owned them all. 

I am not working another job or studying from home while pet sitting. I am pet sitting in my home. The difference? My attention is on the pets, not dealing with my other job or doing an assignment while the pets are around. I'll notice when they yawn and say "big yawn" 😉

Full supervision for services booked to take place in my home.

Your animals will be well cared for and given real affection and attention in my care. Dogs are never left unattended in my home. Pets are cared for as part of the family and have access to inside as well as a shady pergola area and a large, grassy lawn. The yard is secured with a 6 foot fence and gates are padlocked to ensure they remain closed and theft proof. 

My home accessible for seniors and dogs with mobility issues; a downstairs sleeping area in the lounge, there are small steps to help get on the lounge and low beds. The room leads directly to the back yard. I prefer not to crate but one is available. We sleep inside, I have a bed set up downstairs in the same room so they are not alone.

I am happy to chat with you to answer any questions you may have and to find out about your pets specific needs and idiosyncrasies. It is as important to me as it is to you to ensure you feel completely comfortable that your pets needs will be well catered for in your absence. I know how hard it is to leave your pet with another person. Choosing the right person to pet sit can be a big decision. The two most important things are your pets are well cared for and that you can truly relax knowing they are in great hands.

I am only minutes away from a 24 hour vet, in the case of emergency.

So, if you're looking for more than a different sitter every time, if you want "that someone" to be a part of your dog's life, to care for your precious baby when you're not around; that one other place where your dog feels at home, the "fun aunt" or "grandma" (the good one, not the mean one with whiskers) who keeps them happy and safe when you're not there to, I'd love to hear from you.

Advanced bookings are essential.

What to expect: I do insist on meeting any pets who will be cared for in my home prior to accepting bookings. You are welcome to visit with your dog. Please be mindful of other animals when visiting, some animals can be protective of their owner. Should you arrive when someone is dropping off or picking up their dog, please give them space.

PLEASE NOTE!

***Pets entering my home must not, to the best of your knowledge, be carrying contagious conditions, such as kennel cough, conjunctivitis and ringworm, I have my other client's animals as well as my own to protect and I take that very seriously.

*** I accept, in my home, desexed, house trained, vaccinated, socialised dogs over 5 years old. All preventative flea, tick and worming medication must be up to date. At this stage I am only accepting dogs 20kgs and under. 

***I do not accept Chihuahua or herding dogs.

*** Yes! I take staffys.

*** I do not offer service for aggressive animals or animals in heat, with litter or whelping.

I am confident administering medication orally and by syringe.

I am confident expressing anal glands (externally, with compliant dogs) Extra charge will apply for this service.

Thank you for reading through to the end.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
