Hi there! My name is Nicole, I'm a 25 year old performing artist from New Zealand. I'm a huge animal lover with a bunch of experience caring for a range of animals! I would love to house sit, pet feed, puppy visit and walk your dogs. I'm also confident oral medicating, injecting insulin and clipping nails.
I have previously worked for SPCA New Zealand and Creature Comforts, an NZ based petsitting company. I care deeply about the welfare of animals, so you can trust that I will provide your pets with the best possible care. I have previous dog, cat, rabbit, rat, chinchilla, reptiles, fish, guinea pigs and miniature pony sitting experience... a few to say the least!
I have recently moved to Melbourne and I'm staying at a rental that doesn't allow pets, so I can't have animals stay at my place - that's why I'd love to look after yours 😁 I also have a lot of spare time in my hands while I job hunt, so more time to spend with your furbabies! If you require housesitting services I will happily provide any care your pet needs - feeding, walking, bathing, poop scooping, giving medication or just some cuddles and company! I can hang out with them as well as complete any housekeeping during my stay, so I can spend most of the day with your pet.
I don't have any particular preference of pets because I love them all! If you have any other questions regarding my experience or background with animals I'd be more than happy to provide you with more information. I look forward to meeting your pets 🐾❤️

Nicole was a fantastic carer for my cat Ray who was adapting to a new diet and had been unwell. Her communication was very consistent and comforting. I could tell when I got back that Ray had really enjoyed Nicole's stay and ate, played, slept and cuddled to his heart's content.
I was a first time user of Pawshake and didn’t know what to expect. To be honest I was a little nervous about using the service. I found Nicole quickly and was very impressed by her multiple 5 star reviews so reached out. To say I’ve been left impressed is a vast understatement - Nicole is an excellent communicator and took such great care of our two cats (one of which is a little high maintenance and needs a tablet and an eye drop each day). She also provided daily updates with pictures.
Leaving your pets in their own home while their owners are away is so much better than leaving them in a cattery / cat hotel, and when they receive the level of care that Nicole provides, you’ll return to them being relaxed and well looked after.
Highly recommended and would love to engage her services again!
