My name is Courtney!
I’m a professional pet sitter operating in Melbourne’s inner western suburbs. I’ve been providing pet care services for over 5 years. I have completed the RSPCA Pet First Aid course. I have my own public liability insurance, ABN, National Police Check and Working with Children Check.
I’m a passionate animal lover - especially cats! I consider myself a bit of a cat whisperer!
I grew up in a multi pet household. My family rescued and fostered cats and dogs for the RSPCA. I work closely with my local cat rescue organisation, offering emergency animal transport and fundraising assistance.
I am experienced with many animals, including farm animals. I prefer working with cats, smaller/lower drive dogs, rabbits, rodents, birds (incl. chickens), ferrets, guinea pigs and fish (non-exotic).
I offer year-round home visiting service, able to visit your home one once or twice daily, depending of your pets’ routine and care arrangements.
Taking care of pets’ in the comfort of their home means I can cater to individual needs. I prefer this method of care, as it often reduces stress on the animal - I believe routine and enrichment activities are very important. I am happy to try fun activities with your animals’ to engage their minds during our visits.
I’m able to work with furry friends with special requirements, medication, disability and separation anxiety.
You’re welcome to contact me for a complementary discussion, regarding your animals specific requirements.
Pets’ receive the very best personalised care, love and attention while you are away. I love being a warm lap to sit on for your cuddly cat or a source of delicious treats for the food motivated pet. Rest assured you can have peace of mind that your animal is in the very best hands!
I treat each pet as if he or she was part of my own family!
Every animal is unique - as are their likes, dislikes, energy level, personality and temperament. I find it very helpful to know these.
Please feel free to let me know your pet’s favourite toy, activity or preferred scratching spots etc.
I look forward to meeting you and your pets’.
Thank you for your trust!
Kind Regards,
Courtney
