For the past 8 years, I’ve provided dedicated hands-on care for animals as an "Auntie" to a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, rats, fish, and other exotic animals. These experiences have shaped my deep appreciation and understanding of different species and their unique needs.
Building trust and connection is the foundation of my care. I focus on attentive, personalized support through feeding, enrichment, outdoor adventures, and creating a sense of safety and routine. I believe the best care comes from understanding how each pet communicates and responding with patience, awareness, and respect.
With dogs, I bring calm, confident, and assertive leadership prioritizing structure, clear boundaries, and positive reinforcement. I am comfortable walking up to four dogs at a time and enjoy reinforcing good behavior through enrichment, exercise, and play.
With cats, my approach is different as I focus on connection, consistency, and respect. I meet them where they are, and with human companionship.
Outside of animal care, I enjoy dancing, exploring recipes from different cultures, and spending time outdoors.
Animals have always been a part of my life and have given me a lot of love and passion for them from a young age.
I have found that animals tend to warm up to me quickly, though sometimes they need a little more time. When I first meet a pet, I like to let them set the pace and never rush interactions. I pay attention to how each animal responds so I can adjust my approach based on what makes them feel comfortable.
I am especially affectionate with pets who enjoy close companionship. Some cats like to sit on my shoulders or be carried when they’re comfortable, and dogs often enjoy snuggling up beside me. I’m always happy to share that kind of calm, close time with them.
Whether it’s walks, playtime, sticking to their routine, or just keeping them company, I focus on making sure they feel calm and at ease while their family is away.
And if they enjoy snuggling, I am always happy to hold them.
All I want to do is have some fun and play ball. I sometimes join my mum in housesitting, daycare, or drop in trips. I love it when my mum takes me on my hikes, swimming, and dog parks!
