About Emma

Hi there,

I'm Emma, and I'm from NZ originally, but have been here in Melbourne for 2 years. I grew up with both dogs (golden retrievers) and cats, but I currently live in a small apartment so can't have any pets. Right now, I get my fluff fix by greeting every dog and cat I see go by - there are a lot in my apartment building!

I live in South Melbourne, and am happy to go anywere accessible by public transport or walking (I don't have a car). I can visit your dog or cat in your home, play with them, cuddle them, and brush them (if they allow it). I can also take your dog for a walk/sniff-a-thon, and am happy to house/pet-sit if needed (and water your plants). If your dog wants to go for a run, I'm currently working my way back up to running 5k, so they are welcome to join me and provide some much-needed motivation.

I dog-sit for my friends a lot here, so let me know if you'd like references.

I am currently taking a career break and am doing my PhD, so have a lot of flexibility. Right now the only times I am not free are Monday and Wednesday during the day. Please get in touch!

House Sitting

Emma has been great, pet sitting our dog Hiro over a week.

She is calm and patient, and we can see how Hiro clearly misses her presence when she left!

She also provided us with regular updates which were great. Definitely will keep in touch with her in the near future.
