Grew up frequently visiting an auntie's dairy farm to so have experience with cattle, sheep and some limited experience with horses. Have both lived on our own small acreages too, experience with sheep, chickens, geese, ducks as well as rescued natives such as possums, kangaroos, bettongs, wallabies. Have had to deal with tank water, pumps, dams and things like that and familiar with country and city life, not too worried about too many requirements.

We are sisters who love to travel, we work hard but try to get time away whenever business allows us. Adelaide sits are done by Kim alone, and interstate sits we often travel together.
Previous history volunteering with a large animal rescue, so have a lot of dog and cat experience with all types of breeds - big, small and in between.
Long time pet owners, both of us have had pets all our lives, as kids and adults - cats include Siamese, Exotics, Persians, Sphynx and moggies. Dogs we have had include Mastiffs, labs, shepherds, bulldogs, Chows, rotties, staffies, chihuahua & swf's.
Former pet food / supplies shop owners - experienced in caring for reptiles, birds, natives - current native permit holder for macropods (kangaroos) but have experience in possums, bettongs and currently volunteer for a Koala rescue.
We have always had indoor-only cats, if this is your preference also, we are very much used to looking out for/being careful with open doors and windows.
If your pets are allowed to, and want to sleep on the beds, that is fine by us too - happy to make them as comfy as possible with what they are used to.
Many years experience in brachycephalic (squishy faced) dogs and cats and the issues they can have. Also have an extensive history with dog illnesses in general and a frequent flyer at many vets - prepared for emergencies! Daily meds for pets is no problems as is caring for elderly pets.
Happy to Zoom/video meet or phone chats for interstate sits and interview in person for SA sits.
