About Anna

Hello and welcome to my profile!

My name is Anna, and I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals. I’ve been lucky enough to volunteer at an open range zoo in Australia, where I helped care for small animals such as reptiles, educated children about animal conservation, assisted with feeding, and provided enrichment for the animals. I have also volunteered with the SPCA, which further strengthened my passion for animal care and welfare.

Over the years, I’ve cared for many different animals, both domestic and wild, including dogs, cats, parrots, turtles, fish and reptiles. I would love to bring that same care, patience, and passion to looking after your pets while you’re away.

My goal is to make your travel as stress-free as possible, knowing your pets are being cared for by someone compassionate, responsible and experienced.

Services I offer

I provide a range of pet care services, including:

  • Dog walking
  • Home visits and drop-ins
  • Feeding during the day or evening
  • Cat litter changes
  • Playtime, cuddles and one-on-one attention
  • Brushing for cats or dogs, if required
  • Basic dog training support
  • Pet taxi services
  • Watering plants, bringing in mail, or small household tasks while you’re away
  • Doggy day care for puppies and smaller breeds
  • Overnight dog sitting in my home

Home visits and dog walks

Home visits and dog walks are usually around 30–40 minutes. During this time, I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, care, playtime and anything else they need.

Dog walking is generally available in the mornings before 8.30am or after 5pm. Other services are available in the mornings or evenings. Please check my calendar for availability.

Please note that I do work full-time from 9am–5pm, but I will always do my best to accommodate your needs. If your pet requires care at specific times, please let me know when booking so I can make sure it fits around my other responsibilities.


Doggy day care and overnight stays

Doggy day care and dog sitting in my home are offered on a one-dog-at-a-time basis, so your dog will receive plenty of personal attention.

My husband and I both work from home, so we are around throughout the day to provide extra care, companionship and attention. Your pup won’t be left alone for long periods and will be treated like part of the family while they’re with us.

For doggy day care, your pup will have access to our beautiful 1.28-hectare olive grove, with surrounding ponds, plenty of space and lots of interesting smells to enjoy.

Ideal drop-off and pick-up times for doggy day care are 9:00am and 5:30pm. Times outside of this may incur a small additional fee.

For overnight stays, dogs will have a dedicated sleeping area at night. During the day, they’ll spend time with us inside, outside on the property, relaxing in the dedicated dog area and enjoying plenty of breaks, cuddles, and attention. Drop-off and pick-up times can be discussed when booking.

Travel costs

A travel cost of $10–$20 per day may apply, depending on the distance from my home or workplace to your house. This can be paid by cash or bank transfer.

I’d love to chat with you about your pet’s needs and how I can help care for your furry friend while you’re away.
