Trustworthy, Experienced, and Grounded Animal Care With a Gentle Touch

Hello! I’m Colin, a mature, reliable, and deeply intuitive animal carer based in the Byron Shire. With over 30 years of experience working with dogs, cats, horses, and even livestock, I bring not just care, but presence.

I’m new to the Mind a Home platform, but I come with strong references from private clients, rural property owners, and pet guardians who’ve trusted me with their animals and homes over many years. These can be provided upon request.

Having grown up around animals and spent decades in service-based work, I understand the subtle cues that help pets feel safe, relaxed, and at home. Whether it’s long beach walks with dogs, gentle grooming, or quiet companionship, I offer animals a grounded, nurturing presence they can trust.

I live a flexible, mobile lifestyle and often travel along the East Coast, which allows me to give my full attention to your home and animals while you're away. I also take great pride in maintaining beautiful spaces, from a clean, peaceful home to a thriving garden. I’m attentive to detail and will ensure your property is respected and well cared for.

If you're seeking someone mature, responsible, and genuinely loving with animals, someone who will treat your pets and property like sacred ground, I’d love to connect.
