I come from regional Queensland where dogs and pets are family around the town; everyone knows everyone AND their pets. I've looked after cats and dogs for over four years now and for various durations. The neighbours are holidaying in Europe for six weeks? No worries, I pet sat. Needed someone to feed the cat over the long weekend? I handled it. I've trained all the family dogs for a few years now but I don't have any professional qualifications (just a bag of treats and endless patience). My own dog experiences reactivity and happens to weigh 60 kilos so I'm not at all frightened or bothered by pets that might be a bit misunderstood. I've moved to Melbourne for university and miss my big drooly boy very very much, so I know how it feels to be apart from your pets and would love to take care of them as needed. *I'm currently in student accommodation so for the same reason I can't bring my own baby down to live with me, I can only offer overnight services at your house.
