About Barbara

My name is Barbara. I am 25 and moved to Melbourne in July 2022. I would love to get to meet some new pets and help out where is needed.

I have always loved animals and interacting with them. Back home in Ireland we have a 7 year old golden retriever and I loved to walk and play with her. We lived near the beach so I would bring her down to go for a swim. Sadly I had to leave her with the family when I came over and I miss her a lot, she is like a family member.

I would be able to offer a range of help, such as but not limited to, walking, washing, minding, and playing with pets. I am outgoing and friendly and also love to meet new people. I like to keep active and be outdoors but am also happy to sit inside on rainy days. We are a short walk from a big park and have a small outdoor area in our home.

I work Monday to Friday from 8:30am to 5:00pm (work from home Monday, Tuesday and Friday) and I am happy to assist in the evenings and weekends. I'm living in Sandringham and am close to transport(trains and trams).

Don't hesitate to contact me, I am open to any questions if you have any and really look forward to meeting you.

I also have a completed police check I can provide.

Thank you for taking your time to read this,

Barbara.

Barbara looked after my 7 y.o lab for a night at her place. I know Silky received lots of love, attention and exercise by not only the lovely updates and photos, but by her slow motion, tired greeting that I received on pick up! 😄 Silky stood right next to Barbara, looked up at her and wagged her tail when I walked in. Seems as though she didn’t want to come home!

Thanks Barbara, we will be back.

Barbara was amazing with our dog, cat and guinea pigs, and was always responsive. 10/10 would definitely work with her again!
