I’ve grown up around dogs for as long as I can remember. My family used to breed dogs, and I even helped with dog births back then, giving me hands-on experience caring for dogs from a young age. My own dogs are currently back in the Philippines with family (and very much missed), and one of my goals is to bring them here to Australia one day.

Since moving to Australia, I’ve gained additional hands-on experience caring for dogs through Pawshake, looking after pets with different personalities, routines, and care needs. Before that, I regularly looked after pets for friends and family, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life.

I’m also a foster-fail to my cat, Rin, which gave me valuable experience caring for cats and providing detailed updates to rescue coordinators.

I live near a park, making it easy to provide walks that fit your dog’s usual routine. I work a flexible hybrid schedule, allowing me to work from home on some days and spend quality time with the pets in my care.

I’m calm and practical in emergencies and can quickly arrange transport to a nearby vet if needed. I believe in keeping owners informed and provide regular updates, including photos, videos, food intake, toilet habits, and any unusual behaviour I notice.

I also enjoy pet photography, so you can expect plenty of cute, high-quality photos and updates while you’re away.
