About Miriya

I love working with animals and if not for living in an apartment I would have more than cats. It's my passion to spend time with and work with animals. I am deeply empathetic towards animals (it's why I'm a vegetarian!) and love connecting with the animals in my care.

I have experience volunteering at LDH Nth Melb, including feeding, cleaning, exercise and training skills. I have previous experience training Dobermans for Schutzhund competitions.

When pet sitting, you can expect me to offer some mental exercise, feeding, brushing and complete privacy in your home on your terms. During dog walking, I can easily adhere to the breed's physical requirements and I am happy to take them to a dog park or off-leash park.

As a trainer, I'm very comfortable working with anxious and reactive dogs, as well as working dogs with a high drive. I have a strong understanding of dog behaviour due to my training course via LDH. I'm happy to stick to purely positive reinforcement or offer gentle, controlled corrections (e.g. butt taps, loud sounds etc) based on your preferences and/or the dog's needs.

I'm extremely reliable and have fairly flexible hours due my current job.

I particularly adore large dogs and cats, however I love all animals regardless. I'm extremely comfortable working with reactive or anxious dogs and any animals with medical issues.
