I enjoy spending time with animals and giving them the love and attention they need. I am patient and confident, and calmly guide animals to behave in a positive manner.

My background is in demanding customer service and community mental health roles. My skills transfer beautifully to understanding and meeting your and your pet's needs.

I have recent paid experience feeding small animals while their owners were away, as well as pet sitting a male German Shepherd over several

I have used pet sitting services in the past, so I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet behind. You can rely on me to look after your pet as if they were my own.

I welcome requests to look after more unusual pets.

A dog walk goes for 30 minutes or longer by request. I will walk your dog around the local streets, a walking trail or off-leash park where we can play their favourite game. Your dog will be the centre of my attention, because building a great relationship with them is crucial to their happiness. To help keep them safe and happy, I like to know about their likes and dislikes are, and what they love to do.

A house visit is up to 30 minutes long. This includes feeding, changing water and cleaning/changing the litter tray or picking up poo from the backyard. It may also include spending time with your pet (this really depends on the type of pet you have and if they want human interaction). If your pets needs are minimal, I'm happy to perform a few other small tasks as well, which we can agree on when we meet e.g. water plants, take out/bring in rubbish bins.

Pet sitting - at your place or mine: I am still developing this service, and it includes my female greyhound, Mimi (b. 08/2019). If you're interested in pet sitting, I am happy to discuss talk about it on a case by case basis, to see if our pets will be a good match.
