My name is Ella Stirrup, I am 22 years old and work for a Family Dispute Centre as a case manager. I have always appreciated animals and the love they give, not only for my own but for others as well. I have worked close by to pet refuge which was obviously an extremely pet friendly building so I would spend my days with dogs who would love to sit closely at my desk while I worked. I have not had much experience as a pet sitter however I have always had an extreme love for animals and would be honoured to be able to share the current experience I have with your beloved pets and increase my skills and continue to grow in this field. I have had a total of two dogs, two cats and two turtles in my family, named Java Bean, Mocha, Badger, Boots, Michelangelo and Leonardo and of course the little sparrow that sits outside our kitchen window every morning. Pets and animals in general always end up turning a bad day into a good one. I appreciate animals in a way that they also appreciate us humans. Whether it be taking them on walks, watching a movie together, endless cuddles and them pushing you out of your own bed creates memories which can never been replaced or forgotten. It would be an honour to look after your best friend's and keep them company when needed. With experience I understand that some animals can have strong separation anxiety, fear of people they don't know or high stress in general but I can ensure you that I will try my best to make them feel save and cared for and of course regular photos to make you feel also feel at ease.
In regard to the services I offer, I am available most weekends and public holidays, however if given notice I will make myself available. Whether you are wanting a night out without the worry of your pet alone, or a weekend away. On weekends I am available to offer frequent dog walks, it does depend on the dog itself however for adult dogs, I would do 30-60 minute walks and for younger puppies they will be shorter and gradually increase with age. I live close by to a beach and estuary which my dogs have loved to walk through, it really is beautiful area to allow dogs to appreciate too.
