Highlights
Pet care experience
Insured dog walker and pet sitter for over 2 years
I started pet sitting and dog walking for family friends, and quickly realised how much I loved doing it. I grew up on a farm surrounded by animals (cows, pigs, rabbits, sheep, dogs, and cats), so caring for different species has always been a normal part of my life. My mum has been a vet for over 25 years, so we often had animals in the house that needed foster care, recovery, or socialisation before finding new homes. Because of that, I learned early on how to care for pets with different needs, personalities, and health situations. I’m also a very active person who enjoys hikes and running, so for high energy dogs, I’m happy to take them on runs (with the owner’s approval). I love helping pets explore, stay stimulated, and enjoy new experiences.

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I only pet sit in the owner’s home to keep pets in a familiar space and routine. When sitting, I follow all instructions provided, including feeding schedules, walk times, potty breaks, medications (if needed), and preferred play or enrichment activities. I make sure pets always have clean water, a safe space to rest, and plenty of attention. I can also handle small household tasks such as bringing in the post, watering plants, or keeping things tidy if discussed beforehand. I send regular photo or text updates so owners can travel with peace of mind.
Pets
A typical day
Fun activities depend on the pet, but can include walks, playtime with toys, outdoor exploration, basic enrichment games, mental stimulation, or light training. For high energy dogs, I can include running or longer walks if preferred by the owner.
