About Ming-Jhen (Ann)

Hello, I'm Ming-Jhen but you can call me Ann, a chinese medicine student at RMIT. I've always wanted a furry friend at home, but family circumstances kept that dream on hold until now. While I haven't had a ton of hands-on experience with pets, I absolutely love hanging out with them, even if it's just for a short time.

I'm super excited about taking care of your pet like it's my own, making sure all their needs are covered. I'm pretty confident your pets will vibe with me right away and see me as their new buddy. Patience is my advantage, and I'm totally cool cleaning up any mess they might make without a fuss.

Because I'm not a pet expert, I'd prefer dogs that are desexed, well-behaved well-trained, and not too big. Easy-going dogs and cats are totally my jam. I might be open to young pups or seniors over 13, but we can chat about that.

I'm up for visiting your place, whether you've got a dog or a cat, or even rabbit or rodents. I have no experience on reptiles but I'm willingly to know more about them, how to take care of them and how to know their behaviours. I can take your dog for a stroll twice a day, anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour each time. I like to keep it one dog at a time for a more personal touch.

If your pets crave company, I'm down to spend a whole day making sure they're feeling safe and having a blast. Sometimes, I've got part-time jobs that take up my whole day, but when I'm free, I'm available all day! Your pet would be my first priority, and I'll make sure they stay in the first place. I'm usually avaliable from morning to evening. For home visits, I can stay from morning 10 am to afternoon 6 pm, during this time I'm able to do dog walks, water plants and bring in the mail. For adminsiter medication, training and grooming, like I say at the start I have very limited experiences, but I'm a fast learner with a lot of patience, with a short teaching I think I can get the hang of it. 

For dog boarding, pets can stay indoor (living room or kitchen) or a shed to keep them away from wind and rain. The owner need to provide pets' foods, and special needs like a stuff toy usually company the pet to sleep or pet's bed they sleep. My specialty is one on one (for both human and animals), so I only take one pet for boarding per night. In case of animal emergency, my place is near RSPCA burwood and other fastest vet clinic is whithin about 20 minutes drive. 

I'm currently living with my parents, and our place is pet, kid, and teenager-free. Our backyard's fenced up, and there's easy access to fresh water. Oh, and I've got a probationary driver's license, so if you need me in a hurry, I can swing by ASAP. Plus, I'm bilingual, rocking both English and Chinese (Mandarin). Give me a shot, and I'll do my absolute best to keep both you and your pet smiling!

Ming Jhen again did a great job checking in on our cat for two weeks. Knowing our cat is in safe hands being given lots of play and attention really gave us a peace of mind. Many thanks Ming Jhen!

Dropping by to shout out that MingJhen is a great sitter! We booked her to check in on our cat for two days and she did a great job, went above and beyond to have lots of play with our cat. She is very open about just starting out, but we think she did a great job, especially when she was keen to learn how to take good care of our cat. She also provided detailed reports. We especially liked the photos. Many thanks for giving us a peace of mind on our short trip away!
