Welcome message:

Hi! My name is Ashleigh and I am a year 12 student in Sydney. I am looking for some casual work as a pet sitter and dog walker to assist me in saving up for my gap year, once I graduate, where I want to backpack Europe.

My family own a 4, almost 5 year old American Cocker Spaniel. He frequently has ear infections. I am responsible for cleaning his ears and administering his ear-related medications. I also share the responsibility of giving him his medications (3 tablets) every day. So I am experianced with giving dogs their medications that are very reluctant to take it. I also completed a week of work experience at a veterinary hospital in 2023, so I am familiar with working in animal environments.

I do currently have a casual job that I work at most Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays so for jobs on those days I would need at least 2 weeks notice. But Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays I don't need that much notice!

Pet sitting $22 / hour

Pets I'm comfortable caring for:

  • Dogs
  • Cats

Other pet services I can provide:

  • Pet checker (home visits to check on pets)
  • Administering medications
  • Feeding

I have taken care of my baby brother from day one since he were born. I was so excited and so happy to meet him. I take care of him like noone else. I changed his diaper, feed him, change his clothes, carry him around and when he became bigger around 1 nad half years of age he started to talk with me which even more grew love and fond of him in me. I played with him, spent time together, feed him, went to play with him outside.

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Pet Sitter

Follow these handy tips for hiring a pet sitter to ensure your furry family members are safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away.

1. Check Experience

Ask how long they’ve been pet sitting and what types of pets they’ve cared for. Experience with your specific type or breed is a big plus.

2. Verify Credentials

Look for pet CPR/first aid certification, pet care training, or memberships in professional pet-sitting associations.

3. Ask for References

Speak with past clients to confirm reliability, trustworthiness, and quality of care.

4. Meet in Person

Schedule a meet-and-greet to see how your pet reacts to the sitter and ensure a comfortable connection.

5. Discuss Duties Clearly

Define whether they’ll walk, feed, administer medication, groom, or provide other services. Be specific about expectations.

6. Check Availability

Ensure the sitter can meet your schedule, including holidays, weekends, or overnight needs.

7. Understand Rates & Payment

Clarify fees, overtime charges, and any additional costs (like travel, supplies, or emergency care).

8. Review Emergency Plans

Ask how they handle medical issues, accidents, or other emergencies, including access to your vet.

9. Communication Style

Confirm how often and in what form they’ll provide updates—texts, photos, or reports.

10. Start with a Trial

Consider a short test visit or day before leaving for an extended period to see how your pet responds and assess the sitter’s reliability.
