About Carmel
My name is Carmel and I’m a 36 year old animal lover from Epping, Victoria. I was born a passionate about animals. The second of two children, I was the over confident toddler waving my hands at any dog, cat, bird or fish I could find, without caution. More than once I had to dodge growls and snaps, but never letting it dampen my enthusiasm. As a 'grown up' I now have a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever named Dynamite. She is 11 years old and loves everyone and everything. The matriarch of our family is a 17 year old Tabby cat named Ally. We are honored that she lets us live with her in this lovely home!

I'm currently on maternity leave from my primary school teaching position and have the time to devote to someone else’s furry, fluffy or scaly best friend. Additionally, we sadly went from a two dog family to a one dog family recently and our baby girl would love a friend or friends for occasional sleep overs.

My human family consists of my husband Michael and son Henry. It's very important to both Michael and I that Henry is raised as a compassionate person who has a genuine love for animals. Caring for any pet, yours or someone else’s, is a big responsibility, but one I am not only ready for but looking forward to! I have spent my professional working life caring for other people’s children, a change of pace to those who walk on four legs will be a welcome one.

Your furry friends are welcome at my home and will be allowed inside during the day and overnight to sleep. Our house has a very large backyard and undercover deck for sunbaking, or sheltering from the rain! Fancy a Skype session with your mate while you're on holiday? I can make that happen for you!

I'm also more than happy to entertain and keep your pet company by visiting your own home daily, if you'd prefer. As mentioned earlier, I am not currently working so have plenty of time during the day to come over and walk and play with your pal as well as feed and administer any medications, if required.

I am new to pet sitting, but very experienced at being responsible for other peoples loved ones. I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

Carmel was absolutely wonderful caring for our Cavoodle Baci for the week! She is very experienced and nothing was too much trouble.She fulfilled our requests and sent plenty of updates and photos of how our boy was going. We could tell that Baci loved staying with Carmel and her family and would not hesitate to leave Baci there again next time! Thanks again Carmel!
