About Mercedes
Hi! I'm a pet mum to 3 lovely teenage fluffs at the moment. I've grown up with large dogs and now have my own german shepherd puppy as well as 2 cats about to reach their adulthood.
The more I interact with animals, the more my life is enriched and the better I can be at looking after them. During school holidaysI have ample time to help out while my own fluffs have their daily naps to do home visits and dog walks.
I have experience in positive reinforcement having retrained a rescue dog in the past and am using these skills to train my own dog. I'm calm and patient with animals and have experience walking dogs from 14kg to 45kg.
I love cats and have enjoyed helping my own timid boy come out of his shell and can make friends with almost any cat. I know how hard it is to leave your cat/s while you go away and want to make sure you feel at peace knowing they are looked after. I'm an expert at play with wand toys as a bonus 😀
Im only available in the school holidays but can do multiple times in the day.
For my services- I can walk dogs up to 40kg on a long line or shorter lead. 20-40 minute walks. I can train dogs to walk loose leash if you want me to.
I can check in on dogs during the day and let them out for the toilet, feed them if needed and have a play if they are up for it.
I can also do check ins for cats while you are away- feeding, play, litter changing/emptying.
