Yrs old

My name is Cathy, a retiree hailing from Victoria who has never lived without the extraordinary companionship of animals. I have just plunged into this beautiful profession and am eagerly looking forward to bonding with your fur friends. As someone sensitive and madly in love with animals, I stand out as a caring and gentle pet sitter. Having spent most of my life surrounded by our four-legged friends, I am entirely capable of catering to their needs. I can administer both oral and injected medication for dogs, and provide first aid/CPR if required. My love extends to senior and special needs animals as well as high-energy ones who need daily exercise. Apart from that, I can handle their grooming needs such as brushing teeth and fur. Though I am just commencing my professional journey in pet care, my heart and soul are committed to this work. I am looking for a variety of work from drop-in visits, dog walking, grooming, house sitting to providing transportation. Regardless of the type of pet - cats, dogs, birds, fish, reptiles, rodents, or other animals, I am willing, able, and more than happy to work with them. Fortunately, I have a flexible schedule and am available every day of the week at various times - morning, mid-day, evening, and night. What's more, I can bring your pet to my home for a safe and caring environment. I am available to start immediately and can't wait to provide an enormous amount of love, care, and assurance to your pets whenever you're engaged elsewhere. Trust me, your pet would be in great paws.

Most of my experience is personal having grown up with and had animals all of my life. Including dogs, cats, parakeets, rabbits roosters, hamsters, turtles and horses. I have just started trusted housesitters and have one great reference.

Cathy and Randy took care of our three cats recently, and they did a wonderful job. They are both friendly, easy-going people who care about the responsibility and take great pride in doing a great job. One of our cats is very shy, and they ensured that she received special attention. We received some photos to make us feel confident that things were going well, and we returned to a very clean and tidy home. We can highly recommend both Cathy and Randy for your home and pet care needs.

Cathy and Randy were brilliant. Roxy quickly warmed up to them and had a great time getting lots of attention while I was away. They were responsive to messages, flexible on timings and left the house very clean and tidy. I'd happily have them sit for me again!
