Hi I'm Shannon 👋

I'm 32 and work from home with flexible hours so can be available as required for walking and feeding your fur babies.

I have two fur babies of my own, a cat, Bonnie who is 13 and a dog, Violet, who is 4. Both were rescues, and are now living a very lush life being spoilt with love. 

I know how hard it is to leave your fur babies when you go away, so I'd love to be able to give you peace of mind knowing your animals are safe and cared for so you can enjoy your time. 

For your cats, I am available to pop around for meal times, once or twice daily and can also make sure they are inside at night if they have a curfew. 

I am also available for dog walking (only one dog at a time), provided your pup and my dog get along. My preference is to take them on a short walk together first during our meet and greet, to give them a proper and safe introduction. 

During my work from home hours, I am able to offer a place for your dog to come hang with my dog, again, provided they get along and become besties. We have a small backyard which is fully fenced but are a 1 minute walk from a lovely waterway walk that has lots of good smells!

Violet is very playful but a gentle and senstive girl so must be the right fit for her.
This is only available for dogs who don't have a preydrive and are good with cats. 

Please note, for the health and safety of my dog, I am only able to offer services for vaccinated dogs.

If there is anything else you may need please let me know as I may be able to accommodate additional requests. 

Services:

I am available throughout the day; mornings, afternoons and evenings. 

Dog walking: $15/ walk will be approx. 1 hour walk for your dog, we have a beautiful waterway walk nearby and usually walk around there, there is also an off-lead dog park if your dog is okay with other dogs. We have a couple long lines which allow freedom and safety for your dog if you are happy for me to use those on our walks.

Home Visits: My work is flexible so if you require company for your fur babies I can bring my laptop and work from your home to keep your fur babies company during the day. This is particulary suitable for pets who need to be kept a close eye on or cannot be left alone for long periods eg. post surgery or injury. I am happy to administer medication both oral and injections. I am unable to stay over night at this stage. 

During home visits if you require the mail to be brought in or rubbish to be brought in or out, I'm also happy to do that. 

Training: I can offer basic command training (sit, stay, leave it, down, place, come) and some fun tricks too (touch, spin, shake, fetch etc). Please note, I am not a qualified trainer and these are things I have successfully taught our dog.
