I am a dog mum to a lovely, mixed-breed rescue from an Aboriginal community in the Northern Territory.

I have had dogs all my life. I am a part-time teacher (10 hours per week), but my favourite parts of the day are walking my boy, Sammy, and taking him to the dog park.

Sammy is gentle and loves the company of other dogs. I am yet to meet another dog he doesn't get along with! I would love to give him the opportunity to have a dog pal in our home.

I would treat your dog with equal care and diligence.

I am available 24/7. I can walk your dog twice a day+ (or as required) and can administer oral medication.

My home is a modern townhouse with three outdoor areas (patios only) and is in close proximity to Maribyrnong river walking paths and dog parks. Our home is filled with doggy toys and enrichment games. I have one son, aged 10.

Your pet would need to be able to walk to the second storey; be toilet trained and de-sexed.

I would be honoured to take care of your precious pet.
