I am a 24 year old physiotherapist. I have a dog of my own who is my fur child. He doesn't have an aggressive bone in his body and there is not a single dog he doesn't get on with. He is well known down at the dog beach for all the best reasons and comes into work with me every other Monday morning. I can't commit to a dog number two to keep him company so pet sitting is a great compromise for panda to have more time with new friends. 

 My priority has always being giving my dog (panda) the best quality of life he can get, which will also be my priority when taking care of your baby. I go for daily hour long walks which involves lots of socialization, time off and on the lead, as well as on the dog beach for some play time. When your doggo is staying at mine, they will be taken for daily walks (minimum 2 x hourly). They will recieve lots of quality time with cuddles and pets. My house is all dog friendly inside and out so they will also be free to roam where takes their fancy. 

We have a 3 x 1 house with a big fully enclosed and fences back yard. 

I recently went on holiday and found that finding someone trust worthy, and someone who would care for Panda as well as I do very challenging. As a result I would love to be that person for someone else so they can go away without having to worry about their fur baby not getting the care and love they deserve. 

I have spent my entire life around animals as well as now taking care of my own dog. I understand that positive reinforcement, lots of socialization and patience is the way to go when taking care of any animal.

I have a flexible work schedule so I spend a decent amount of time at home - I spend lots of time at the dog beach, doing walking trails, exploring bush tracks and hanging out a doggy cafés. 

My passion is animals (although I'm a physio I get on with animals far better haha) and it would be a pleasure to take on someone's member of the family while they are away.

My back yard is fully fenced and secure (high fences and locked gates). Panda is a rescue so this was all inspected prior to getting him. I also don't mind where the dogs sleep, I have a crate if your dog is crate trained (panda takes over our bed so it isn't used), but I'm happy for your dog to hang out wherever they feel safe and can settle. 

You will need to provide food, leash and other doggy accessories. However I will provide the training treats as I like to combine walks with some training activities too.
