About Talia

Hey, my name's Talia! i'm from the UK but currently studying/training in Melbourne. I grew up in a super animal-y environment, dogs, cats, horses, guinea pigs, hamsters you name it, i've had them or looked after them! Since moving to Melbourne I've really missed having animals in my life and so wanted to start pet sitting. I've used other apps in the past but have now transferred to Pawshake. I've had experience with dogs with behaviour issues such as lead aggression and food possessiveness so available to help owners who need someone with a bit more experience in that regard. Also happy and comfortable with animals of all, breeds, sizes and temperaments.

As an experienced sitter and animal carer, I cater to your pet, if they are needy and affectionate then they get lots of attention and love, if they are more independent or find new people anxiety inducing I get to know them at their pace - their comfort is a priority whilst their favourite humans are away. :). Services I offer are: dog walking, pet sitting in owner's home; either staying overnight or spending some time with them in the morning and evening.

I am in uni 9-5 so whoever i'm looking after will have me during the early mornings and evenings unless I am on holiday in which case they will have me during the day as well.

Having had my own fur babies since before I can remember until adulthood means I know that it can be really nerve wracking leaving an extra member of the family with a stranger so rest assured you'll be plied with photo updates and a chance to get to me first as well as letting your pet get to know me too.

Look forward to looking after whoever you send my way.

Talia :)

Talia did a lovely job looking after my dog Albie for a weekend. Her communication was great, he got lots of love, and the house was perfect when I got home.

We highly recommend Talia! She took amazing care of Sophie whilst we were away, ensuring she was well-fed, played with, and kept company. We received regular updates, which put our minds at ease. It was clear Soph was happy and comfortable the entire time.
