About LARA

Hi! It's Lara here. I am a reliable and responsible petsitter who grew up having pets at home (a hamster, a guinea pig, cats and dog), and I have more than 1 year of housesitting and petsitting experience in Melbourne (can provide reviews and references from previous pet owners). 😊

I like nature and walking, hiking and green areas, and I also have experience in training my dog and spending time with many other dogs. I am used to dealing with especially fearful or shy dogs, as I have patience and they soon trust me and approach me. I feel comfortable with any type of dog and I really enjoy training them and spending time with them. 

DOG WALKS: I am used to being firm and strict with commands when needed but I always use techniques of positive reward with animals. I am used to walking long distances and a dog would be the perfect fellow to bring with me! I think being a pet sitter is the perfect opportunity to do a job and enjoy at the same time. I am available for casual dog walks or some walks every week (including weekends), since I work mostly from home. Usually, I walk dogs once a day, for 1 to 2 hours, but walking time can be discussed according to each dog needs. I can provide some training (ex. reinforcing commands or learning new commands).

PET SITTING AT THE OWNER'S PLACE OR DAY VISITS: I offer pet sitting (night stay) at the owner's place or day visits. I have experience providing oral medication to dogs and cats so I'm happy to do this if needed. As I work from home most of the time I am able to spend time with your pets, so they wouldn't be left alone for long. As for day visits, I can come between 30 min to 1h depending on the needs required and price can be adjusted if you need me to stay longer.

Do not hesitate to contact me for further details!
