Stephanie

I am an avid animal lover, looking to enrich my life with more and more best buddies.

This is my second time as a Pawshake sitter. I lived in NSW pre-COVID and my partner and I decided to move down to Berwick, VIC, mid-COVID, so as no one could travel I cancelled my account. The first time around I was very successful, so giving it another go down here :)

I absolutely LOVED meeting all my little fuzzy friends and was devastated when I had to stop due to the pandemic so thought it would be a great time to start it back up now that things have settled down again.

I'm currently working in local government administration, studying Criminology at uni part time (online, which I am about to graduate from), and have more love and time to give.

We have two doggies and a cat, whom I love with all my heart. I grew up always having pets in the house and think it's the best way to live life. I am hoping to meet lots of furry babies and spread the love.

Unfortunately because of our pets we cannot offer pet sitting in our home, but really happy to stay in yours where your pets will feel safe and sound.

I am comfortable administering oral medications, clipping nails, picking up after your pets, and happy to help out with pets with behavioural issues or special needs, as we have some in our home.

I can currently offer pet sitting services in your home, one or two visits per day, overnight stays, or dog/pet walking. More than happy to discuss any other needs you or your pets may need.

I am reasonably flexible depending on you and your pet's needs (and your location). I like to give your pets a bit of love during my visits, so am more than happy to stay and pet them and play with them. Note: I am mostly available in the mornings and afternoons for walkies, but I can be flexible based on your needs (apart from days where I'm usually in the office and only available late afternoons and evenings, however that's only 1-2 days per fortnight currently).

Dog walking-time varies depending on your dog's needs. With mine, one of them needs a long walk and one has damage to his legs and can only do 15 minute walks at a time. So I base this on the information you give me and the needs of your individual dogs.

I am very respectful of your private space when staying in your home and only utilise the areas that are absolutely necessary to the stay. I will stay with your pets to feed, pet, play, and make sure they are happy and well taken care of. If you have specific requests I am happy to discuss this with you.

I have extensive experience with dogs, cats, other fuzzy and scaly creatures, and am comfortable and happy to do whatever you need when it comes to any of them!

Please feel free to reach out at any point if you have any questions, I am here to help and looking forward to meeting you and your furry friends!
