I will be a caring sitter for your fur baby/babies. I've grown up around animals and have cared for many pets, particularly cats and dogs. Some have called me the 'animal whisperer' and I will adapt to care for your pet(s) in the way that suits their needs.
I'm a part-time university student studying a bachelor of science/bachelor of business and my flexible schedule allows me to provide home visits and house-sitting services. I am available most days; some days I'll be more available in the mornings and others will be evenings and nights. I am happy to discuss and plan services around your schedule as much as I can. I am responsible and will be a fun friend for your pet(s), as well as caring for your home and belongings in an appropriate manner. I have cared for pets for both short-term and long-term timeframes, with the longest being 1 entire year. Friends and family have relied on me to do home visits for their pets, and I have also had the honour of house-sitting while caring for pets, so I already have experience in the services I provide.
I have a quiet temperament, while also being fun and friendly. I am very tidy and will keep spaces clean. I enjoy spending time with all kinds of animals and will happily play with them and be a quality companion for them while you are away. I am open to discuss the inclusion of small chores/tasks (bringing in mail, putting out bins, watering plants) for home visits. For house sitting, I expect there there to be certain home maintenance to uphold for you, as well as duty of care over home security. These responsibilities will be customised for each service.
I have good knowledge on how to handle cats and dogs of all ages. I will not hesitate to contact you regarding any concerns should they arise, and I do have experience handling animal emergencies from some work experience in a veterinary clinic when I was younger. I have previously dealt with bee stings with dogs, and am reasonably comfortable administering most medications. I am also successful with basic training for dogs - sit, lie down, roll over, shake, and some additional behavioural instructions.
I am observant and will notice any personality/behavioural changes to pets and keep a close eye to ensure duty of care for them. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby/babies. Please contact me if you have any queries.
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
Ashleigh is deserving of my 5 star review, she is honest, reliable and dependable, as long as Ashleigh is around she will always be the one i choose to look after my animals. Cheers ashleigh
Ashleigh is a great communicator and is very conscientious. We were getting married while we were away so our days were pretty hectic, but we knew we could trust Ashleigh completely. I was able to completely focus on the wedding and all the associated demands and I knew that Ashleigh has everything under control. She sent heaps of photos and thorough details of each visit. We will definitely book her in next time we need to leave our beloved dogs.
