About Fran

Hi, I'm Fran. 

Are you looking for someone who is caring, reliable and dedicated ? Well look no further !

I've found it's a challenge to find suitable and affordable care when going away whether it's for a few days, a few weeks or a few months.

My years on this Earth have given me wonderful experiences with small dogs, cats, fish and birds and amphibians.

I am a mumma to a lovely 10 year old DSH rescue and a previous mumma to a travel-buddy rescue dog, Tommy (who has since passed).

By providing the housesitting service ,your pets will be in the comfort of their own home and provided with enrichments that'll make your time away less stressful for the both of you.

Not only that but you will have someone take care of your home, mail and deliveries while you're gone.

I've previously been an active foster carer & then an admin for a local rescue (The Mini Rescue Inc). I've volunteered with AWL Warra and Wildlife Rescue Qld. I have a Cert 3 in Animal Studies but due financial hardship I'm unable to continue Cert IV in Vet Nursing 2024. Update: I am enrolled to study Cert IV in Veterinary Nursing in 2025.

Thankfully I've learned some skills that enable me to confidently give medications orally and sub cutaneous (for diabetics and pets needing fluids).

I'm available for transport to and from vet appointments; once or twice daily visits while you're away as well as pet sitting in your own home.

* I am able to administer medications;

* Water your plants;

* Bring in your mail;

* Put your bins out;

* You'll get photos, videos and updates on your pets so you'll have peace of mind knowing that they're well cared for.

I invite you to check my calendar for my availability and look forward to meeting you and your pet/s.

My prices have increased as of Aug 25 2024 unless you have already contacted me and made prior arrangements.

We've had Fran house/pet sit for us a few times now - she's our first choice and always hope she's available when we need a sitter. We like the piece of mind especially having a special needs pet!

Fran was great - able to fit in a last minute booking, was punctual and good communication. She really cared for my 2 dogs, and sent lots of updates and photos which we really appreciated. Would highly recommend and will use again
