Hi I'm Olivia! I live in Yass on a big 1200m2 block with lots of grass for your dog to run around on. I am also happy to come to you or to swing past for daily check-ups.
I have a Kelpie at home, so I'm used to the high energy lifestyle. I have plenty of toys and puzzles to keep your dog stimulated during their stay.
I work from home Thursdays and Fridays each week, so am able to supervise your pet full-time for weekend stays. I do work from the office Monday to Wednesday but I have a pet camera so I can supervise what's going on throughout the day and come home if needed.
I'm highly experienced in caring for dogs with medical and behavioiral needs, including administering medication. My kelpie has epilepsy and kidney disease, so I'm well-set up for managing illnesses. I will always schedule my day around medication times where possible, but I also have auto-feeders that can dispense medication at set times. I'm also happy to adjust our walk patterns if your dog is reactive and needs a bit of extra space.
I'm highly confident and capable looking after dogs no matter the size. I'm very strong and fit and can handle even the most determined puller!
I have not looked after other animals before except chickens (I currently have 3), but provided you are able to do a meet and greet where you can walk me through diet, feeding times and daily routines, I am happy to have a go at looking after any type of animal as if it were my own. Unfortunately I will not be looking after non desexed dogs at this time.
Please note that my fences are quite low (see pictures) so if your dog is a jumper I may look to keep them inside except when supervised.
I'm more than happy to send photo and video updates and will keep you updated to let you know how your pet is settling in.
Please feel free to come past for a meet and greet to see where your pet will be staying and to make sure they get on with my Kelpie. I generally have full availability on weekends and will respond to enquires promptly....
