I have a lifetime of experience looking after animals, from fish and rodents to cats, dogs and birds. I am an animal person, I enjoy spending time with animals and ensuring they are cared for and shown affection (when wanted). 
I have been in Australia for 9 years and have a rescue cat who I adopted almost 3 years ago. Prior to being in Australia I had a mini schnauzer and 2 cats (plus fish & hamsters). I've always had cats and dogs, my childhood dog was a Border Collie who I adored, so I understand how much energy working breeds require. When I was at university I provided day care to a home that had 3 dogs, 3 parrots and 2 cats, including walking the pups!

Recently I have been dog house sitting for friends when they have gone on holidays (1-2week trips) for a Heeler/cattle dog and kelpie. I also have house sat for kittens & a mum cat for a friend who was fostering and had to attend an out of state business trip. I would love to help look after pets as I know how hard it can be to find a responsible person who will treat your pet like your own. 

I am only be able to have dogs stay at my home and this would need to be on a case by case basis with how the dogs are with cats.
