About Hugh

I reside in a dog-friendly apartment with a fully fenced large balcony on the 1st floor, conveniently close to beautiful parks and gardens (Smith Reserve, Darling Gardens, Edinburgh Gardens, and Dights Fall Loop). Currently, I work part-time from home and pursue online studies. While my schedule varies, my remote work and flexible study (only 4 hours in calls) ensure your fur babies receive ample attention and company. With my roommate working nights, there is consistent attention, so your pets will never feel lonely with me!

I have no resident animals, and I work remotely 5 days a week so your pet will have endless quality time with me!

I offer dog walking (up to 1 hour) as well as boarding for your dog (dog walking is included in boarding as well). Again I will only board your animal(s) unless otherwise discussed.

For daycare needs, animals would have round the clock care as I work from home remotely, and for boarding needs animals would never be left alone for more than a couple of hours.

I live in a 2 bedroom apartment with my dog-loving roommate James with no pets, so there is plenty of space (including 1 large closed off outdoor area)

I also offer sitting at the owner's residence (location dependent). Dog walking is also included in sitting, as well as any plant watering and taking bins out, etc.

A bit more about me:

Having experience caring for neighbours, roommates, and friends' dogs, I am highly motivated to pet sit as I have only a few years of study left before returning to full-time work. Typically, I host one dog at a time, unless you and your dogs are comfortable with another friend joining. During high-season holidays, there may be multiple bookings simultaneously. To ensure your dogs have plenty of space to run around, I accept a maximum of 2 dogs at the same time if they enjoy furry companionship, with your approval. Alternatively, I can accommodate three small dogs if they are from the same family.

I am happy to text or call for any additional information, and vice versa, I intend to communicate with you in your preferred manner to ensure optimal care and keep you updated. I am fully vaccinated! 😊

Thanks Hugh for your caring service for my two fur babies. I felt very comfortable with the service and the boys had a great stay.

Lou has separation anxiety but he was very comfortable around Hugh and managed to settle in nicely. I will definitely use Hugh for my next trip away 😊
