About Pippa

Hello! I'm Pip, your friendly neighborhood pet sitter! Whether your fur baby needs a buddy for a day or someone to spoil them rotten while you're away, I've got you covered. With tons of cuddles, playtime, and belly rubs on the agenda, your pet will have a great time with me! 

A little bit about me:

I've decided to head back to school to study a Bachelor of Commerce while working part time as a vet nurse. I've been working in the animal care industry for the last four years and am well experienced with cats and dogs of all shapes and sizes! I love to live an active life so you can trust your pet will be keeping busy while you're away! 

A little about my pets:

Taffy - My 12 year old Shih Tzu x Jack Russel who is full of personality and slowing down a bit now that she's reached her senior years! Her favorite things to do include, swims at the beach, stealing Baloo's peanut butter kong and long sleeps with my shoes!

Baloo - Is a 5 year old Blue American Staffy and the biggest couch potato! His only demands are his morning walks and late night mince.

Freddy - My smoochy cat who I found under the house as a kitten. He has never left since and loves to sleep in the dog's beds.

Pusscat - Our tripod! She unfortunately lost her leg, but that hasn't stopped her from sunbathing the day away in the sunniest room of the house.

Services I provide include:

  • Dog walking - Up to 1 hour per day ($40/60min) and catered to your dog's specific needs e.g sensory walks with lots of sniffing, beach walks with swims (happy to include a dog wash for an additional $20) or throwing a ball at the park. If your older dog needs a shorter walk please select a home visit to get the correct rate.
  • Home visits - Can cater to your pets needs the length and amount of visits needed. I will ensure your pet has been fed, access to fresh water and some fresh air (if applicable), quick tidy up if needed and most importantly spend time with your fur baby! ($20 for a single visit or $30 for two visits).
  • House sitting - Looking after your home and caring for your pets as well as watering any plants and bringing in the mail. ($65 per night)
  • From daily walks to doggy house sitting, I will ensure your pets are well cared for.

    I look forward to hearing from you soon!
