Hi there, I’m Fiona and I can’t wait to spend some time with your furry pals! Rest easy knowing that your pet will be showered with love by an experienced pet carer while you’re away. I’m a 23 year old student who studies online. In my free time I’m a bit of a homebody, so I’ll be able to keep an eye on your furry pal at all times and give them plenty of attention.
I’ve had hands on experience with caring for pets through growing up in a home that adopted and fostered many rescue animals including cats, dogs, ferrets, rabbits and various types of birds. I’ve also completed a Certificate II in Animal Studies through Box Hill TAFE and the RSPCA. It was a great experience which taught me a lot about animal behaviour, pet first aid and care. I was given the opportunity to work with all different kinds of animals with varying personalities and health conditions.
My partner and I live in a home in Laverton, we have no housemates, children or pets so all of my energy and affection will go to your pet. My partner works during the day but loves animals so he’ll give them lots of affection when he’s home. Our backyard is nice and big, perfect for playing fetch! It’s very secure with high fencing so your pup won’t be able to escape. The gate leading to the yard will be padlocked at all times so your pets will be very safe. Since we don’t have any carpet in the house they will be allowed to roam freely in our large living/dining room and the bedroom, please let me know if you don’t allow your pets to sit on furniture so that I can enforce that rule.
Services I Offer:
- Boarding
- Daycare
- Walking
I am able to administer medication if necessary (no injectables though) and can give baths to smaller dogs. If I am to be feeding your pet you will need to provide food and a feeding schedule (when you usually feed them and how much). My hours are incredibly flexible with availability to care for your pet during the day or overnight any day of the week.
