Rosie & Maya

Hi, my name's Rosie and I have recently moved to Australia from the UK with my partner Maya! We are aged 23 and 22 and are recent graduates from the University of Oxford and King's College London. I am currently studying from home full-time, as I am working towards qualifying as a solicitor when we return to the UK, and we are pet-sitting while in Australia as I love having the company of pets while Maya is out at work!

We are experienced pet-sitters, who have looked after both dogs and cats, including a very energetic Bernese Mountain puppy, a sweet Miniature Schnauzer and a cheeky Bengal kitten! I have grown up with dogs, and have my own Tibetan Terrier, Albie, back in the UK. My dog has chronic pancreatitis, so I am used to administering medication and keeping a watchful eye out for signs of flare ups. Since being in Australia, we have looked after dogs who have had a variety of traits, such as separation anxiety, food aggression and nervousness around strangers, so we are accustomed to catering to the needs of each individual dog. Maya has grown up with cats, and has a lovely 15 year old British Shorthair back home called Lottie. We have experience with both outdoor and indoor cats, and have looked after up to 4 cats at a time since being in Australia, all with a range of ages and temperaments.

As well as having plenty of experience with animals, Maya and I are both used to looking after other people's homes, as we have been doing a mixture of housesitting and subletting apartments since we moved to Australia. We have always ensured that we returned people's homes in the exact same condition in which we found them - if not better. We are both non-smokers, and enjoy a very quiet and relaxed lifestyle.
