About Karlie

Hi there! My name is Karlie and I am a recently graduated veterinary technician (nurse) with 1 year experience working in a busy speciality and emergency clinic in Brisbane. Unfortunately I currently live in an apartment and am unable to have any pets of my own but I guarantee I will treat your furry friends/ fur kids as my own. Due to this I am not able to board pets at my home, but I am more than happy to travel to your home so your pet has the added benefit of being in a familiar space. I work full time so wouldn't be available 24/7 during week days, but would have ample time in the morning and evenings to spend with your beloved pet. I have a copy of my work roster up to 10 weeks at time that I am happy to send upon request.

I currently have little experience pet sitting but have owned animals my whole life, as well as working within the veterinary industry I am capable of taking care of your pets regardless of their age or medical needs. If you have a pet with medical needs I am extremely happy and capable of caring for them and medicating with oral, injectable and topical treatments. I am capable at recognising when a situation requires a trip to the emergency vet and have my own reliable transport. I am also trained in first aid and CPR for animals in a worst case scenario. I am not a trained groomer but am happy to give your pets a brush or bath if needed.

I also offer dog walking for those whose schedules are jam packed and just a bit too busy to take your furry friend out for a daily walk. Or for those who may need a little extra assistance getting their dog enough exercise. While I'm not a professional dog trainer I have undertaken several courses in dog behaviour and training techniques and am happy to offer guidance where possible.

I love all animals so no matter if you have the tiniest kitten or the largest horse-sized-dog I am always excited to meet your pets.

Karlie did a great job of looking after our 2 cats, even with our old grumpy cat's medication needs. Even our cats approved, with our grumpy cat who often hides from sitters, coming out for Karlie and being an "angel" about her medication. We'll definitely be booking Karlie to look after our cats again.

Karlie house sat our 2 cats and did a great job. I found her to be very friendly and easy going and made the whole process hassle free. No hesitation recommending her services.
