Hi paw parents,

I am an active 50+ paw parent of a medium size groodle ready to assist other paw parents to look after their fur babies. 

Why do I want to be a dog sitter? 

Because I love dogs and I like helping paw parents. I know what it is like when you need help with your own fur baby and you need to leave them in the care of someone you trust. I appreciate the importance of that peace of mind they will be cared for while their paw parents are away. 

I have myself used the services of paw sitters especially when my previous dog was old and needed company during the day. I am forever appreciative for that help and ready to be of service now. 

What is my experience with pets?

I have had dogs my whole life because they make me happy and I couldn't live without them.

I have experience with rescue dogs (all my previous dogs except for the current one) have been pet recue.

I have experience with dogs of all ages. My previous dog lived until she was 19 years old and needed lots of extra special care. 

I have also had dogs from puppy age.

I have looked after friends' dogs when they went on holidays.

I have also had cats for a few years.

When am I available?

I am currently not working, so available for walks or home visits during the day. 

What services would I provide?

I am very active and will be delighted to take your dogs for a walk, have a play and give them lots of pats. 

I will meet with you and your fur child/ren and will take a brief from you (get to know your pet; what they like or don't like; words they know; any special instructions).

What is my neighbourhood like?

There are lots of dog friendly parks around Bentleigh East (King George Memorial Reserve ) and Hampton (Dendy Park) and of course the foreshore (Hampton).

I have a safe and large backyard.

Looking forward to meeting with you and your fur babies.
