About

Hi and thanks for reviewing my profile, I am Danielle. I love animals, helping people and exploring Melbourne. I'd love to keep your pets happy and home beautiful so you can enjoy your travels worry-free, knowing your fur babies are safe and secure in their own home - free of kennels, catteries & cages.

I adore all four and two-legged animals, especially dogs and cats. For most of my life I have grown up around dogs, cats, birds, rabbits and fish. I am happy, healthy and energetic individual who loves to take pets for regular walks, runs or some fun park and playtime when they want.

I work full-time Monday through Friday in Southbank, with the flexibility to work from home two days a week. I prioritise returning home to provide your pets with the care and attention they deserve while you're away.

I have housesat many properties & pets over the years when returning from overseas or deciding to save for my next adventure and find it a great social & cultural experience helping people, meeting & caring for so many pets as well as falling in love with their quirky personalities. All while enjoying the amazing mix Melbourne has to offer.

Without a doubt, the hardest part of housesitting is leaving the special bonds and relationships that are built with these beautiful creatures. However, the joy & appreciation of owners returning to loving reunions & sparkling houses helps ease the pain!

I understand that every household & pet is unique and am always happy to do everything the way you and your fur babies like. Rest assured that your home and belongings are in safe, secure hands.

Here are some key details:

No dependents or pets
- Full-time employment with flexibility
- Own transportation (car space or permit is ideal)
- Experienced in pet care for various animals
- Enthusiastic about gardening and home-grown produce
- Meticulously clean, caring, and respectful
- Clear criminal record, police check available if required
- Can provide a Working with Children Check.

Rates:
Short-term stays (up to 14 days): $70 per day;
Longer stays (up to 30 days): $55 per day.
Extended stays: Negotiable.

Danielle looked after our home and pets for four weeks while we went overseas. Danielle was very easy to deal with and made lots of effort to understand what our pets needed so that we were able to leave them feeling confident they would be well looked after. She also left the house immaculate on our return which was very much appreciated. I am very happy to recommend Danielle as a house and pet sitter.

Danielle and Steve were excellent sitters and we would highly recommend them. We were away for six weeks and left them to look after our rabbits, guinea pigs, stray cat, garden and house. When we returned the house was spotless, the garden in great shape (despite the hottest December on record) and the animals all looking great (even the stray cat was waiting to be fed). They were incredibly well organised and were happy to meet with us (twice) before we left on holidays (to sort through the logistics of feeding the animals and looking after the house and garden).

Danielle sat our house for 7 weeks while we were overseas. She did a fantastic job looking after the house, a large garden and eight chickens. Her communication was great before, during and after house sitting; we always knew exactly how things were going, We returned late in the evening after 30 hours of flying/transit to find a sparkling house (and a bottle of red that was put to good use). We highly recommend Danielle to anyone requiring a house sitter and would love to have her look after our place again when we next have a holiday! Thanks Danielle Best wishes Casey and Paul

Danielle cared for our home and our cat recently, and we could not have been happier with her. She is a delightful person, very friendly. reliable and responsible, and left our house immaculate. We arrived home to a very contented cat. We have no hesitation in recommending her unreservedly for any future sittings. Anne ( 93805912)
