We had our own fur baby who travelled with us, but sadly she passed away with bladder cancer in 2020. We now have a new fur baby Bonnie a very sweet quiet well behaved Papillon.
Since then we have had many house & pet sitting engagements from WA, VICTORIA, NSW, QLD & FNQ
Both long and short terms.
It is such a joy to us meeting new people & animals and making friends.
We are very reliable, honest and pride ourselves in looking after people's homes as if they were our own.
We are very concious of the needs of others and also try our best to look after the environment.
Some of our sitting positions included having to give medications to animals and doing specific jobs for different places, this, to us is an important part of our responsibilities as house and pet sitters.
