About Rita

Hello and thank you for visiting my Pawshake profile.

Since retiring I've realised how much I miss the company of pets as well as the cuddles and love they give.

The house seems so empty without them.

After having had dogs for over 30 years, but with plans to travel in the future it is impractical to have my own pet. I enjoy long walks exploring the local parks and neighbourhood. We live close to Merri Creek where there is an off-leash park and plenty of dogs ready to play.                                                                                             

I have had lots of experience pet sitting lots of different breeds (Labradors, Groodles, Miniature poodle) and sizes and temperaments for friends, relatives and neighbours.

I'm happy to have pets of any size or breed, indoor or outdoor, and provide a secure yard.

We have no other pets, so your pet will have our undivided attention.

My home is fully fenced with a medium-sized yard. I am confident to administer any medications as required, give your pet a regular brushing and twice a day walks

We just loved Rita and so did Gino. He had a fantastic time. She made him so comfortable and we had peace of mind knowing he was in kind hands. Looking forward to seeing more of Rita in the future.

Rita was wonderful with our small and friendly Lana. When we picked Lana up, she was happy and relaxed. I would definitely recommend Rita.
