About Kim & Eoin
Kia ora, Hello!
We are Kim & Eoin, a husband and wife team currently based in Perth, Western Australia who love animals and the outdoors. We are considerate and caring - your pet(s) and your home are in good hands and will be very well cared for.
Availability:
We will be based in Perth from September 2024 to April 2025 and are available during this time for dog walks, home visits and short to medium term stays, ideally in the local area. We love walking in the hills and would love to bring your furry friend on our adventures. Note that we only walk one dog at a time unless agreed otherwise in advance. We give your pooch all of our attention.
Home & Pet Sitting:
We enjoy home and pet sitting and generally prefer the longer sits where we can unpack, relax, develop a nice walking routine and become great mates with your furry friend(s). We'll consider all locations in and around Perth.
We work together (we founded our business in 2018) so our work is very flexible meaning that there is generally someone at home during the day to care for your pet(s) and if not - they won't be on their own for too long. With at least one of us working from home there's always time for a sneaky walk, game of fetch or cuddle in the middle of the day!
We have experience house sitting for dogs (of all sizes and anxiety levels!), cats, chickens, fish, guinea pigs, sheep and more. Eoin practically grew up on his Grandparents farm so he has experience with most animals and we're definitely not ones to shy away from a challenge.
Eoin is a carpenter, licenced building practitioner and fine furniture maker with 20+ years experience, if there are any emergency repairs required while you're away, he knows his stuff and his work is second to none.
Longer trips often mean airport transfers, running errands while you're away and stocking the fridge and pantry in preparation for your return, we're happy to help out in any way we can.
Other services:
Our calendar books up quickly so if we're not available to sit for your dates, we'd be happy to pop in at feeding times, for walks and to keep an eye on the place / make it look lived in while you're away, if your fur babies are ok on their own overnight that is! Pop us a message and we'll do our best to accommodate you.
We look forward to meeting you and getting to know your furry friend(s)!
Warm regards,
Kim & Eoin (pronounced Owen)
Reviews:
Some parting thoughts from clients whose homes and pets we've cared for in the past:
"Kim and Eoin did an amazing job, looking after our animals (a dog and chickens). They went above and beyond house sitter duties! They were at our place for a storm and did a fantastic job cleaning up the whole driveway of branches and leaves. They left the house immaculate. I would thoroughly recommend them." - Fiona, 10 days, October 2023.
"Kim and Eoin really went above and beyond with looking after our dog and home whilst we are away in the UK for 5 weeks. They thought of everything and were super supportive with our trip. They helped us with driving to the airport and getting supplies in for when we arrived home, which we were super grateful for, especially as we were travelling with a baby. We were initially apprehensive about leaving our dog for such a long time but after we met Kim and Eoin we felt very happy and didn’t have to worry about the dog or the house whilst we were away. They very kindly came to take our dog for walks a few times before we went away and she was beside herself with excitement when she saw them coming. They took her on lots of great walks, including some really long ones, gave her lots of cuddles and sent us photo and video updates. The house had been looked after beautifully- some bits were a lot cleaner than when we left it! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. Thank you so much and we hope we can have you to look after our dog again :)" - Kerri & Will, 5 weeks, November 2023.
