About Lacey

Hi I'm Lacey! I have worked with dogs and cats for almost 15 years as a kennel hand, then veterinary nurse, and as a behaviour and training assistant. Each pet has their own quirks and needs and it's always a pleasure to get to know these perfect little weirdos.

My standard dog walks are 30 minutes but hour-long sessions can be booked as a double. I recommend this for athletic and working breeds.

For pet home visits I spend 30 minutes in the home for feeding, watering, litter scooping/toileting, playtime, etc. I am also happy to add in any additional tasks such as medication administration, or grooming.

I am also happy to work with you to address behaviour problems and to help you understand any issues you're having and how to work on the unwanted behaviours.

I am a positive reinforcement trained vet nurse. This means I use encouragement and reward, rather than punishment or pressure to communicate with the animal. I have completed my Low Stress Handling, and Fear Free Professional certifications. I am experienced in dealing with behaviour issues as well as disabled or injured pets, puppies/kittens, and senior pets.

We want a fun experience for them from start to finish and I tailor my care to the pet to ensure this is the case.

I truly love my work and I can't wait to meet you and your furry family!

Lacey did an awesome job looking after our fur baby while we were away. She went above and beyond keeping us updated with detailed reports. We'll definitely be hiring Lacey again. Highly recommended.
