I love all animals and have always had dogs in my life.

 I seem to end up with rescue dogs but that gives me a great deal of satisfaction knowing that I'm helping unwanted dogs. Late last year I lost my beautiful TJ who was 16.5yrs old. I still miss him terribly. I now have a new little Shih-Tzu Maltese X called Muppet Rose, commonly known as Muppet. She's 3.5 yrs old right now and has settled in very well. She's really good with all my dog sitting dogs. She's stubborn, she's a very fussy eater and is a very slow walker as she loves to sniff. I walk the dogs twice a day.

I prefer not to take puppies as Muppet doesn't like them jumping all over her. Therefore I like to have dogs that are at least 12 months old. My main criteria is based on the meet and greet and if that goes well and I have availability then I will accept most bookings.

I have been with Pawshake for a number of years now and love looking after all my furry friends. I have a lot of repeat clients and have two regular day sit dogs each Wednesday.  

My home is a small Queenslander with a front and back yard. The yard is fully fenced and secure.

 All my doggy boarders are completely spoilt and definitely allowed indoors and will sleep indoors if they want however I do require all dogs to be vaccinated and house trained.

 I have a doggy door that leads from the living area out on to a verandah and from there they can access the front yard. Only smallish dogs would fit through but I'm sometimes amazed how bigger dogs manage to crawl throuigh.

 The verandah steps lead down to the front yard.
