A little about me: 

I'm Saelin, 26 years old and have recently moved here from Canada for my PhD in genome sciences at the University of Melbourne. When I'm not working I'm usually cooking, reading, listening to podcasts, getting some exercise, or biking around doing errands. 

I'm missing my own pets back home (dog and two cats) and would love to have some animals back in my life. I have a flexible work schedule and work a lot from home, so I am available almost all hours for day care, check-ups, walks and overnight stays. Day care can last all day (8am - 11pm), check-ups generally 15 min to 1 hour, and walks 30min - 1 hour (can do longer walks for extra charge). I can be home all day long if needed. I am unable to host myself, unfortunately. I'm open to any pets, but have tons of experience with dogs and cats. I am fine with changing litter boxes, feeding and giving oral medication, brushing and giving baths, and general play time. I am also okay and patient with highly anxious animals and high-energy puppies and kittens. 

In terms of location, I live in Fitzroy and am generally available for anything up to 30 min bike/transport commute for checkups, and 1 hour commute for longer stays. 

I promise to play and cuddle with your pets and keep them entertained -it's fun for me, too. I love animals and looking forward to caring for yours!
