I founded & run Labrador Retriever Rescue Australia and utterly adore the breeds. I am a pet sitter/minder on other sites too and have some regular repeat customers. Every animal who walks or flies through my door is treated & loved like my own while their parents are away. I live on a large block.
The permanent residents at my house are myself, my golden lab Toby, my choc lab pup Dave, My galah - Bonnie & Mallee - Clyde.
Let me know if this sounds like a potential holiday home for your dog, I would love to meet you & your dog & let them check the yard & house out to ensure it is up to your dogs holiday standards!|
I became interested in petsitting when I attended a kennels to pick up a foster dog. It was such a high energy & anxious place for the dogs, so noisy & crazy. Then I found out the pricing & thought it was ridiculous to be charging that much for dogs to be effectively in oversized cages for their stays with the odd time out to play. I knew I could offer better & cheaper, giving the owner peace of mind that their dogs are being treated (read: spoiled) like my own for the duration of their stay.
Talk soon, Kat :-)...
