Cooper Torrens
Northcote, VIC
Activity summary
Pet sitter, walker, and friend
I have recently moved to Northcote from Sydney and had to leave behind two cats with their 'mum' and would love to spend more time with animals. I have been home and community gardening for 10 years, and have maintained a very clean home my whole life. I have helped a friend run a kitten foster program and a cousin train two dogs for farm work. I'm comfortable with all kinds of dogs. I have a calm and confident demeanor that helps make animals feel at ease with me quickly. I'm into moving my body and am happy to take multiple dogs for a walk, run, or cycle. I am an environmental scientist, but am taking several months break to reconnect to nature and animals.
