About Cressida
*Please read before enquiring :)*

I have experience as a previous dog owner (a darling kelpie/german shepherd cross called Bear!), experienced cat foster mumma (including kittens) and pet sitter (both dogs and cats). Now I have joined MadPaws to streamline the way families can contact me!
I am in my late 20s, work in education and I am patient (a useful skill for fussy or shy fur friends) and love to engage with animals. Happy to provide references for you.

Daily Visits
- On Sydney's Lower/Mid North Shore (Lane Cove/Mosman/Milsons Point region)
- This will include a half hour visit to refresh food/water, clean litter tray, let a pet out for a toilet break and pet playtime!

Overnights
- I prefer locations within Sydney's Lower North Shore, however, feel free to reach out to check your location with me!
- Please note that my rate is a nightly rate not a daily rate. I will arrive in the afternoon the first day of a booking (after 4/5pm) and leave in the morning on the last day. If you would like to have a morning session on the first day or evening session on the last day please either add a visiting booking or message me and I will adjust the rate in consultation with you.
- I do not work from home so I will likely be out and about during the day. Please take your pets temperament into consideration when applying, for example: if your pet cannot be alone for around 6 -8 hours during the day then I am not the sitter for you! :D

Walks
- The prices I quote are for 1 hours walk, this price doesn't go down for a shorter walk but would increase by half an hour increments for a longer walk. Overnight pet sitting includes a short walk round the block but please book an additional walk if your dog requires more (we can work out a package deal for multi day stays just send me a message)

Cressida was excellent when she looked after our Golden Retriever for a week at our home. Great communication before & during dog sitting.

Cressida was amazing, Kea was well looked after, she kept in good contact and left our place spotless. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter.
