🎨 🐕 About 
My name is Clare and I'm an illustrator (drawing dogs is my thing!) I've taken up house/pet sitting to have more animals in my life and the ability to work from [your] home on my passion (illustration) part of the week. I work 3 days per week at Clean Paws Dog Grooming in Byron Bay, it's my day job which I also love. Please note I generally only take sits within a 30 minute radius of Byron Arts and Industrial Estate.

🐶 🐱 Experience 
I have extensive experience looking after cats and dogs. I grew up in a house with many animals including dogs, cats, birds, mice, fish, turtles and more. I have been house/pet sitting full-time since August 2022 so have almost 1 year of experience looking after other people's pets. I’ve looked after horses, ducks, chickens and plants in addition to dogs and cats. References available upon request 🙂 📞

💕 🎾 🦴 What you can expect
I will treat your home and pets with care, courtesy, respect and love. I am happy to take the dog/s for walks and follow the routine they are used to. I know a thing or two about grooming so can meet your dog's grooming needs easily. Your pet's well-being is the most important thing and I always go the extra mile to ensure they are happy and as well looked after as possible - I really care.

🏄‍♀️ My Schedule
I work 3 days per week and will likely be out of the house for 8 hours on those days. I’m a surfer and like to get in the ocean 1-2 times per week so may be in and out of the house during the other days, while some days I will spend most of the day at home. I also enjoy spending some dinners with friends so may be out during the evening sometimes. Please consider whether your pet/s will cope with this kind of schedule - I’m happy to take them with me where I can where it is safe to do so.
I enjoy running so would love to run your dog some afternoons if they’d like that, but I’m also happy to adapt to their needs and routine first and fit mine around that. 

🙋‍♀️ A little bit more 
I am 35yo and focused on building my small business (Hound Town) and establishing myself in the children's book industry. House/pet sitting is part of the plan which will help give me some financial freedom to make my dream of being a full-time illustrator a reality. I also love the opportunity to spend time with a variety of pets and in new neighbourhoods. I have been in the Byron area for the past 12 years (originally from Brisbane) and love our community in the Northern Rivers. 

I'm looking forward to taking care of your furry ones, I love cats and dogs equally and am open to all kinds of ages and breeds, big and small. 😊
