I love all pets and animals with my whole heart and I will definitely treat your pets like family. I've been working as a petsitter for the past 9 years. (For a while, even, as a dog au pair!!) Before that, I was a deeply devoted dog- and cat-owner myself.
I'm fully vaccinated including boosters every six months, have a COVID-19 business plan in place, and have completed the official Australian Government COVID-19 Infection Control Training course.
My background is in zoology and I work in wildlife rescue in my second job. I have happily devoted my life to caring for animals! I love both of my jobs dearly, and I love that they give me the opportunity to care for animals and pets of all kinds.
I also enjoy hiking, so wherever possible, I like to take dogs out into any natural area - like the beach, large parks, lakes, rivers and creeks - for long walks. I will gladly accept the challenge of a high-energy pup! And if your dog prefers a good cuddle instead, bring on the fur!! :)
I've had cats all my life and frequently care for them as a pet-sitter. I have a great deal of appreciation for the level of care that goes in to caring for a cat and making sure they are happy while their parents are away; I will gladly play and cuddle all day with your furry feline friends!
Over the past few years, I've gained a significant amount of experience caring for my clients' more exotic animal companions, including smaller mammals, birds (chickens and parrots), fish and reptiles (iguanas, geckos and chameleons)....
