From one pet parent to another...i've used the Pawshake service for my own pets and trust those who are pet parents themselves. As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet mum, I bring over 20 years of hands-on pet care experience, with a special focus on rescue animals. I’ve had the privilege of volunteering for over a decade with one of the most beloved dog rescue organizations on the North Shore, where I met and introduced hundreds of dogs to their prospective new parents. This invaluable experience has deepened my understanding of various breeds, their unique needs, and challenges. At home, I share my life with two rescue Border Collies and two wonderful children. I’ve successfully rehomed a foster dog recently and am adept at managing the diverse needs of both cats and dogs of all sizes and temperaments. My empathetic and observant nature ensures that I notice even subtle changes in a pet’s condition. What I Offer Home Visits Tailored to Your Pet’s Needs: Includes feeding, water top-ups, playtime, litter or pad changes, and general clean-up. Medication Administration: Experienced with tablets, eye drops, creams, and other treatments, including for senior pets. Updates for Peace of Mind: Daily photos and updates of your pet while you’re away. Additional Services: Mail/bins/parcels brought in, light plant care, coat brushing, and transportation to the vet if required. As an organized professional, I ensure your pet’s routine remains consistent. My SUV is perfect for multi-pet transportation and makes home visits smooth and efficient. Fees: Tailored based on service level and location. Additional services like walking or advanced care are available upon request. Let’s discuss how I can provide the best care for your furry family while you’re away!
