About Brooke

Hey there! My name is Brooke, I'm a 27 year old PhD student at Swinburne University studying health sciences. I'm super passionate about bunnies and I absolutely love spending time with them and getting to know their quirky personalities. 

I've got a lot of experience caring for bunnies as I've grown up with them and now am lucky to care for two giant Flemish bunnies for the last 8 years. Our buns are indoor, free-roaming buns, and they've taught me so much about creating a safe and fun space for them to live in (see my photos for cute pics of the boys!). I've learned all about what makes bunnies tick – from their eating habits to how they like to play and everything in between. 

When it comes to my bunny sitting services, I aim to personalise care for each bunny's needs. I'm there for the regular stuff like feeding, keeping their space clean and comfy, and making sure they get plenty of playtime and cuddles (but only if they want them!). I know how important it is for bunnies to stick to their routines, so I always try to keep things familiar and comfy for them.

As someone who has struggled to find a good bunny sitter in the past for my two flemish boys- my main goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your furry friend is being looked after by someone who truly cares and understands them. I also have experience caring for cats, dogs, and other small animals!

A bit more on the details-

Due to being a student, I'm very flexible in my availability and can be available morning, afternoon, or evening depending on what suits your schedule.

I predominanly offer house visits for bunnies and other small animals although if you have other pets I'm happy to look after them too! 

I live central to Melbourne CBD (near Melbourne Central) and service all of Melbourne CBD and surrounding suburbs (Carlton, Southbank, North Melbourne, East Melbourne and Docklands).

During my 30 minute house visits I will:

  • Refill your bunnies hay.
  • Clean out their water bowl and make sure they always have clean drinking water.
  • Provide them with snacks and their favourite fresh veggies or fruits (in moderation!)
  • Clean their litterbox/area/hutch - where ever they like to do their business.
  • Remove any rubbish, vaccuum or sweep and stray hay or fluff hairballs and ensure the area is tidy.
  • Provide social/cuddle time if they are open to it.
  • Provide grooming (nail cutting, brushing, etc) if required.
  • Send you a picture update.
  • Happy to water plants, bring in mail, etc.
  • ...and anything else you need for them!
  • Please send me a message if you have any questions at all and I'd be happy to answer them.
