Pet care from fur to scales

Pet care experience

* Please note prices will increase Sept 1/23. It’s been absolutely fabulous caring for so many wonderful animals. Due to the increased prices of gas and other expenses, I’ve had to raise my costs to ensure the quality of care remains to your home and pets. *Each dog sit includes 2 walks/day ($60 Value) I leave your home as clean as you left it. Cleaning as I go, before I leave I’ll usually remove bedding, put out garbage & recycling, bring in deliveries etc. As a home owner I treat yours with the same care and respect as my own. For an extra cost I occasionally offer Air B&B support and pet wedding party assistance as well. Growing up I always loved my own pets and the neighbour’s! From fish, Guinea pigs, hamsters and rabbits to birds, bearded dragons, cats and dogs! I’ve been blessed to be around so many beautiful animals. Spoiling them with the love and attention they deserve fills my bucket. Apologies I often remember the pets name and never the humans! I’d love to get to know your precious pet and be there when you can’t. After caring for children and running a large successful childcare centre for 20 years, I’m excited to now focus on furry friends.

Andrea was amazing! My dog is 16 years old so he needs particular attention. Andrea made sure to take him out often, gave him all his meds, made sure his he ate his meals- everything. And she gave him tons of love and affection, and kept me constantly updated. And she was a very good house guest. 10/10 would recommend!

As always Andrea takes such good care of our animals that we enjoyed our trip all the more knowing they were in her excellent care.

Information Andrea W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know any important information such as fears, discomforts, medications, allergies or changes your pet is going through. This will help me provide the best care I can. If your pet is in training, please update me so I can continue the same actions and followthrough. * Pet First Aid coming soon * I have a set dog walking schedule during the week for private clients that may not appear on the Rover calendar between 11-2 ish. But please feel free to always ask if a booking says it’s not available, as schedules change :)

A typical day

I’m happy to play your pets favourite games and toss or hide toys all day. Walk, run or just take it easy smelling the world or lie in the sun with ear and belly rubs. Your pet is the boss! If you have a safe open space close by, I’m happy to throw balls etc. If you don’t have portable water, let me know and I’ll bring some. If your pet prefers to be alone we can find our own space. I walk other pets as well including my own cat!

I am now a full time animal caregiver creating time for your pet and all their walks and play or quiet times. To give your pet the most of my time, I aim to schedule walks somewhat close to the Marigold area. I’m happy to travel further for overnight care. However if you’re ever stuck, let me know and I’ll try to help :)
