Returning Home to WA - Animal Lover

More information about this house sitter

Hi!

I’m an Australian citizen originally from Switzerland. I lived in Perth’s northern suburbs for 17 wonderful years before moving back to Switzerland to be closer to my ageing parents. Perth has always felt like home, and I’ll be returning from 17 December 2026 to 29 January 2027 to visit friends, reconnect with the community I love, and enjoy being back in beautiful Western Australia.

Having lived in Perth for so many years, I know the area well and still have many wonderful connections there. I’m looking forward to spending time in a place that means so much to me while having the privilege of caring for someone’s home and beloved pets.

Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I share my home with three beautiful 12-year-old cats of my own, who travelled with me when I moved back to Switzerland after my years in Perth. Having used pet sitters in my own home when I travelled, I understand both the pet owner’s and the sitter’s perspective. I know how much trust it takes to welcome someone into your home, and I never take that responsibility for granted.

Over the years, I have cared for both cats and dogs, most recently staying in a client’s home in Landsdale in January 2025 to look after two dogs while their owners were away. I enjoy spending time outdoors and would love to take your dog for walks if they enjoy getting out and about. I have also cared for cats for various owners and understand how important it is to maintain each pet’s routine, provide companionship, and give them the individual care and attention they need to feel safe and secure.

While living in Western Australia, I volunteered with Cat Haven, caring for cats in need. I was also responsible for the mobile animal farm at community events, from collecting and setting up the mobile animal farm to ensuring the animals’ wellbeing throughout each event. These experiences gave me valuable hands-on experience with animals of different ages, personalities, and needs.

I’m a respectful, tidy, and reliable person who will care for your home as if it were my own. Whether your pets enjoy cuddles, playtime, long walks, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

For your peace of mind, I can provide my Swiss police clearance certificate and am currently awaiting my Australian police clearance and a pet reference. I would be happy to provide these as soon as they are available.

I would love the opportunity to give your pets the same care, love, and attention that I would want for my own cats while caring for your home as if it were my own. Read more...
