More information about this house sitter

Hi there, my name is Madison (34yo)
I’m an experienced house and pet sitter with a lifelong love for animals and a deep appreciation for caring for homes. For 15 wonderful years, I was a devoted dog owner, but after my beloved companion recently passed away (1 year ago), I decided to take the opportunity to travel and explore beautiful Victoria and Tasmania.
Along the way, I’ve found great joy in caring for others’ pets and homes, helping them feel safe and loved while their owners are away.

I have a natural way with animals and a calm, warm, and nurturing demeanor that helps them feel at ease. Whether they are elderly and need gentle care (I have had 3 ederly dogs now, and know how to give medication if needed) or active and full of energy (my previous dog was a kelpie x), I tailor my approach to suit each animal’s unique needs.

In addition to dogs, I owned ducks and chickens while living on my 5-acre property, where I developed a strong background in gardening and permaculture.

Here’s a bit about my background:

Animals: I’ve cared for a variety of animals, including dogs, ducks, chickens, and farm animals (goats, lambs, rabbits, pigs, rounding up cattle, a small amount of horse care) during an agricultural apprenticeship on Churchill Island, VIC. I also volunteered in penguin rehabilitation having hands on experience with feeding them - which was an incredible and rewarding experience.

Training & Behaviour: With qualifications in dog behaviour and training, I’m well-equipped to ensure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and understood.

Professional Skills: I work as a nutritionist (with some online work while I travel) and a massage therapist (this part of my career is taking a break), bringing reliability and care to everything I do.

I’m thoughtful, active, and passionate about creating calm, happy environments for animals.
I also love staying at home, cooking, and spending time in nature.
During my studies in Melbourne, I worked as a pet sitter through the Mad Paws website, where I gained experience looking after a variety of pets and homes.

While I’m new to this site, I bring years of experience and care to every home and pet I look after.
Let me know how I can help you enjoy peace of mind!

Warmest,
Madison Read more...
