About Belinda

*** note to returning clients and people who are in the process of booking - I am currently moving to Werribee. 

I am still happy to see existing clients and re-visit pets I have cared for. 

You can still book once daily visits, house sitting, and dog walking with me if you were happy with my service and would like to re-hire me, subject to availability, of course!

Twice daily visits on weekdays will be a little too difficult to do outside of the Wyndham / Hobsons Bay area in future, I am afraid, but I will happily still travel to visit your pets after work and during the weekend. I apologise for the short notice - it happened pretty quickly! ****


I'm a full time vet nurse & qualified in low stress animal handling with a passion for pets!

I love cats, dogs, and "pocket pets" like rabbits and guinea pigs & am currently owned by 4 cats, 5 guinea pigs & a bunny. 

I have limited ability to look after additional pets in my own home but can board smaller "pocket pets" and provide respite care for more complex pets like neonates.

I can very happily provide home visits to check on your pets in their own environment, as well as care for plants, collect mail, walk dogs, and administer medications. 

I can offer overnight stays as well, and longer visits over the weekend.

I love a challenge when it comes to winning over nervous pets, and am the go to "cat and pocket pet person" in my clinic. 

I am an experienced neonate raiser and have handraised 3 of my 4 cats! I have also hand raised a bunny and guinea pig - both of who now live with workmates so I can get regular updates on them! 

I have previously house and pet Sat for friends and family, and on a more professional level. 

Services I can offer include:

House sitting, daily or twice daily visits, poop scooping, dog walking,  mail collection, plant watering.

As I have my own pets at home that I need to check in on, I can not house sit for extended periods of time, but can happily house sit for up to a week and at a pinch could stay for a fortnight at most. 

I would be away during work hours and to check on my pets, feed them and make sure they are happy and healthy, but can spend the night & give your pets oodles of love while I am there! 

Dog walking depends on the local area, but I'm keen to get out and explore! Walks would typically go for 30 mins to one hour but this would really depend on the individual dog and what is best for them.

Depending on what is required, a typical visit would last for 15 - 30 minutes. I love an opportunity to play with your pets and provide some enrichment while I'm there, so if there is an opportunity I will stay longer, especially if I have any concerns about their happiness! 

I typically work from 9-5, so can provide early morning visits (before 8am) and afternoon/evening visits (usually from 6pm)

In addition to this, I can perform additional tasks such as administering medication (including parasite treatments), trim nails, assist with hygiene trims, basic dog washing, assist with hand rearing small mammals (birds are another level of speciality I am not experienced enough for!) 

If you live locally (wyndham area) and require regular assistance with tidying up after your pets or maybe just once a month nail trims, anal gland expressions, etc I can assist with this. Please get in touch with any queries about pricing or ongoing rates!
