About Sarah

About me:

My name is Sarah, I am a 21 year-old student studying a Bachelor of Veterinary Nursing at Melbourne Polytechnic with a completed Certificate II in Animal Care.

I currently work at T2 and as a medical receptionist and am looking to earn a little extra on the side and broaden my experience with animals to complement my studies!

I am a kind and passionate person with a desire to accomodate for all needs where possible, and I always do so with a calm and positive attitude and a big friendly smile!

I am gentle and patient with animals and understand each have their own special requirements and personalities and I always look forward to meeting them and getting to know their individual little quirks.

My services:

I would be super appreciative for the opportunity to look after your precious pet(s). I offer House Sitting services where I stay with your pet(s) at your house and take care of them whilst you enjoy your holiday!

I provide

  • A meet & greet at your house (free of charge) to discuss needs suitability
  • Lots of cuddles
  • 1-2 walks a day
  • Feeding morning and night
  • Plenty of piccies to keep you updated regularly
  • A kind, gentle and friendly demeanour
  • Low/reasonable rates ($65 per night)
  • Experience & qualification in the animal care field
  • I can administer oral medication
  • Can look after multiple animals
  • To help you decide if I'm the right sitter for your pets needs:

    I will be out most of the day as I am a full-time student but home during the evening/nights for a walk, feed and lots of cuddles!

    My week typically runs like this:

    I go to Uni in Epping from 9:30am-4:30pm Monday - Tuesday, I have placement on Wednesdays in the city and work in Surrey Hills from 9am-5pm Thursday & Friday. I'm a Christmas casual at T2 so hours and shifts are alternating.

    I am open to caring for most animals* and ensuring they are well looked after and cared for in the comfort of their own home.

    *For the safety of myself and your pet, I prefer to not look after intense, aggressive or disobedient animals as I am not strong enough to handle them and would rather they are in the hands of someone more capable.

    Feel free to reach out, I'd be delighted to meet you and your wonderful pet(s)!!

    - Sarah :)

    Sarah is wonderful! She took such good care of my fur family while I was away for a few days. Sarah is conscientious, caring and dedicated - communication was prompt and nothing was too much trouble. She sent through photos of my cats and provided updates. I have no hesitation in recommending her. Thank you again Sarah.
