Marlies

I DON’T work from home - this is my ‘job’. Consequently I am available 7 days a week unless stipulated otherwise on my calendar. Taking care of your best friend is my ‘work’ which means we spend the day together. 

I do several Walks per day ranging from 30mins to several hours. This will be to the numerous leash free parks around me, neighbourhood walks, bush walks, beaches (Clontarf and Sirius Cove), or destinations eg Coal Loader, Manly, Kirribilli. Exercise is determined by the dogs energy levels, age and owners preference, weather, tides etc. (Ref pics on my profile). My aim is to provide a full day so your dog arrives home happy and contented. Basically we have a GREAT TIME! And I looove my job. 

I have a small cottage in a quiet street. The back yard is small and decked (ref pic 43) and fences and gates secure. Home is for calm time after the adventures of the day. The dogs sleep inside (unless otherwise requested) in my kitchen/dining area (several pics on my profile). As I have no soft surfaces toileting is done with regular visits to the nature strip (and on walks of course). I can have up to 5 dogs so PLEASE NOTE I am I unable to accept dogs who are ANXIOUS, AGGRESSIVE, BARKERS, CHEWERS/DESTRUCTIVE, NOT TOILET TRAINED. 

Pets must be desexed and a copy of the C5 certificate is required. As a single household with no pets, the dogs need to be comfortable with staying on their own/with other dogs while I run errands, food, medical etc. This would usually only be an hour or so. That is why they MUST be calm, quiet, non destructive, well socialised, and NO sign of AGGRESSION at all. The safety of you pet is of paramount importance. A meet and greet at my home is a must to ensure your dog will be a good fit with my home and other members of the pack. 

A bit of history, I used to show Great Danes. Up until 2014 I worked in an office then decided to make a lifestyle change. I started dog walking which then morphed into dog boarding and while I’ll never be rich I love what I do!
