About Jo

I'm a 31 year old nursing student / aged care worker with a love for animals. I have my own dog, a kelpie called Freddie. He is about 3 years old, I've had him since he was about 6 months old. I live in mount colah and there are lots of nice areas around me that I normally take Fred for a walk to .

Previously, I have owned cats, horses, fish, Guinea pigs, mice and budgies. I am lucky to have been around animals my whole life!

i am based in the upper north shore and keen to help look after your babies while you're away / busy. I know how important pets are to people and how nerve wracking it can be leaving them in other peoples care. My services include dog walking, pet sitting (for any animal), home visits (up to twice a day) and can even water your plants, put bins out/in and check the mail if you need. I am happy to administer medications also. If I am walking your dog, my usual time is 1 hour and I would take them wherever you like - whether it's the local dog park or a local route around town. For home visits , just let me know how long you want me there and what your pets like in terms of interaction.

I'm normally available outside of 9-5 hours Monday - Friday. Weekends depend on my plans but I can be flexible so even if it says unavailable for a certain day / time period please reach out anyway as I may be able to move things around.

I have looked after friends and family's pets before and years ago did use this app to help other people as well (have made a new profile since then as was so long ago), so I'm familiar with working with the app and looking after clients' pets too. Mostly I looked after cats and dogs, with some needing medication administered and over night stays.
