I have been petsitting for 10 years. I love animals and have looked after cats, dogs, rabbits, birds and steer.
I can provide references from regular clients and a link to my recent reviews on a similar website in Melbourne.
I'm a quiet, responsible woman in my 30's. I am comfortable giving a range of medications. Some owners think I'm a cat whisperer. I grew up with 3 cats and a golden retriever cross. I just try to listen to what pets want, whether it's things like cuddles, space, quiet, play, exercise or to shadow me.
Three people I've petsit for want me to adopt their pets if they move overseas.
Lifestyle:
I don't smoke or drink. I'm a quiet person. My hobbies include boardgames, hiking, learning to dance, and exploring. I have done a lot of volunteering. I am a Marine Mammal Medic.
I can't have pets yet, as I want to travel. I petsit to get some pet cuddles and to save money for travel.
Training:
- Wildlife Rescuer for Wildlife Victoria in Australia
- Marine Mammal Medic with Project Jonah in New Zealand
- Introduction to Animal Studies Short Course
- Civil Defence training, for response to disasters like the Christchurch earthquakes. I know I am calm and focussed when the situation calls for it.
House Visits:
Every visit, (if they want it) I will give your pets cuddles and play. I'll happily spend all day cuddling and playing with animals.
I am taking responsibility for your pets. If I need to, I will put them ahead of anything else in my life, even on Christmas Day.

We greatly appreciated the time Teri spent with both Charlie, the puppy, and Luca, our senior cat (and master). The report on how the visit went was informative and extensive, so we had nothing to worry about. Highly recommended.
Highly recommend Teri, she is an excellent communicator, kept me up to date while I was on holiday and most importantly took great care of HarryCat. Thank you very much Teri!
