About

Female. Australian. Early 40s. Single. Non-smoker. Work 1 day in the office every 2nd week (CBD) and the rest from home.
*************************************************************************
CATS
Have cared for teenage, adult, and geriatric cats. One cat required monitoring of his health, taking to the vets for a regular injection and daily oral medicine.

DOGS
I have looked after puppies through to older dogs. Large (strong) dogs and small sizes. Breeds include Labrador, Jack Russell, Rottweiler, Golden Retriever, Toy Poodle, Labradoodle, Cocker Spaniel, Staffy, Shitsu and Whippet.

Some dogs I have looked after have had behavioural issues (recuse dog) or older dogs (15 years+) who need extra care or clean up after accidents. This is no problem.

I have administered medicine to several dogs I have looked after. This includes tablets, eye drops, skin cream, regular shampoo following a series of steps, and ear cleaning/drops.

Finally, as a kid and teenager I cared for my own Jack Russell until he was 17 years old and had lost his sight.

CHICKENS
I have looked after chickens on previous sits. On one sit had a flock of 35 chickens! Would take in and out of the coop at dawn and dust and clean daily.

Each pet has its own sweet personality, and you can receive love from any animal, you just need to accommodate to their needs.

GARDEN + POOL
I enjoy looking after plants and will happily water the garden as needed. I grew up with a vege patch and a pool in the backyard. I have been cleaning the pool and filter, checking the water and chlorine level (for pocket money) since I was a kid!

LIFESTYLE
I work standard business hours, otherwise, I am spending time with your pets.

TRANSPORT
I own a car.

CRIMINAL RECORD CHECK
A copy can be provided if requested.

References from previous owners are available. I will share their phone number and you can call them directly to discuss.

We were so lucky to have made contact with Pippa.. Our dog Bronson is a rescue dog and does have a few behavioral issues.. Pippa quickly made friends with Bronson and handled him well. On our return home, our house was spotless and Bronson as happy as ever, preferred Pippa's company to our own.. We have no hesitation in confirming Pippa;s 5 Star performance as a House Sitter.

We loved having Pippa house and dog sit our labradoodle. She kept our house clean and tidy and we could tell Lily (our dog) missed her when she left. There was one incident with a water pipe which Pippa sorted out immediately preventing further damage to our property. I am so thankful to her for that.

Im delighted to write this reference for Pippa.. She house and pet sit our 4 year old choc lab, 5 year old cat, and budgee. Our cat, who has always been under weight, (mainly because our dog would eat her food) had put on a little weight when we came back from our 2 week vacation. Pippa would take the time to separate the two when we were away allowing our cat the time to eat her meal before she feed our dog in the same eating area. We have asked Pippa to pet sit at our house a few times when we have been away either for a few days or a few weeks. The house is always clean when we arrive back home! She is a respondible, bright women and I would confidently recomend her!

Pippa is a wonderful housesitter, she is very clean and conscientious. When she stayed at our house it had never been so clean! We have two cats and she looked after them whilst we were away on holiday. They both warmed to her and she didn't mind dealing with the odd surprise poo or sick that our elderly cat is prone to. She is a very thoughtful guest who will take care of your home and its inhabitants!
