About Melissa

As a British expat who traded the drizzle for the Australian sun a few years ago, my family and I are loving the outdoor Aussie lifestyle. I am a mother to two young energetic boys who are moving into Kindy and School so I'm thrilled to be in a position to finally chase a long-held dream: to open our lives to care for your wonderful pets. This is a precious opportunity to share the joy, companionship and comfort animals bring with my children, while providing your furry family member with all the love and attention they deserve.

We've always been a family of animal lovers, but renting has meant putting our own pet ownership on hold. My love for animals was forged in a unique setting—growing up in the grounds of Windsor Castle! Our family home was a constant hub of activity, not just with our own labradors, chinchillas, and cats, but with a rotating cast of dogs thanks to my mother's pet-sitting; and I'm eager to recreate that magical childhood for my sons.

I offer a range of services, including boarding, day care, house visits, and walks.

At this time, I can only take on small dogs because my boys are still little. I have capacity for up to five dogs at once. I’m flexible about where pets sleep and spend time, and I generally do whatever makes them most comfortable. I’m also able to administer medication. When boarding or day sitting, I limit my time away from home to the absolute necessary. I do work one flexible day on the weekend, but if I’m at work, my partner and boys are always home. Rest assured, your pets will be cared for as if they were our own.

I look forward to caring for your pets in a family home which is fully fenced, safe and secure. Please drop me a message, and we can discuss your bookings further.
