About Katherine

Hi there and thanks for considering me to look after your pets!

I am a stay at home mum to 6 kids and 3 dogs, and can't forget my chooks! 🙂

I have a Swiss shepherd, Kimba who is an old soul, gentle and a little hard of hearing but he still runs around like a puppy! I also have a cavoodle, Teddy who's very much a lap dog and enjoys being wherever we are. And finally, my newest addition is Macey a little miniature snag. My dogs are friendly and I haven't had any issues with them interacting with other dogs, birds as they all have been around my own chooks.

With all the animals, I slowly introduce them to the incoming pet to avoid stressful situations and ensure it is a manageable and enjoyable stay for everyone involved.

I have been raised around animals and have experience with dogs, cats, guinea pigs and birds. I recently stumbled on the world of pet sitting when looking for options for my own doggo when I needed to travel.

So if you're looking for care for your animals please send me a message. I'm happy to do visits to your home, hosting at my place, walks or daycare as required.

About me and my services:

I like to arrange a meet and greet prior to booking approval to ensure it's a good fit for both you and your pet.

I am a stay at home mum, so apart from Kindy drop offs I will be home with your pet all day, if requiring daycare or boarding. For overnight stays I can offer indoor or outdoor sleeping arrangements.

As I have pets already at home, I can take a maximum of 2 additional animals per day for daycare or hosting. These animals must be from the same family to avoid any issues. Please note I will not take animals from multiple families at the same time for hosting and daycare.

My own dogs are crate trained, So I can supply a crate for up to XL size animal if you prefer or they are welcome to sleep in the lounge room on their own bedding provided by you.

I can feed and walk your animals, play with them during the day. I do ask that you provide the food, as each pets requirements will be different and notify me of their feeding times.

Our backyard is a decent size and is fully fenced, secure, with cameras.

I am happy to administer medication if required.

I would ask that you notify me of any concerns with reactivity or triggers in your animal, as I would like to ensure the safety of your pet and my own pets.

As stated I have my husband and children in the house, and they will be around the animals when home. My home is loud and busy, so for anxious or nervous animals who are used to a quiet environment it might not be suitable.

I offer dog walking in 20 minute intervals. I have the option to walk near my own home, at the fenced dog park nearby, or I can come to you and walk your dog, or check in daily for home visits.

For home visits, I can attend your home daily, twice if you require to check on food, water and your pet. A visit will usually last between 10-15 minutes and can include some play time and cuddles. Longer durations can be arranged if you require.
