When I'm looking after your pets, their wellbeing is my top concern. Because of this, I will no longer be able to look after dogs for more than 3 days when their family is out of town.

Even with multiple visits per day, it is too hard on dogs to be alone. I am simply unable to provide the care and stimulation they require, and it is not fair to them.

Thank you for your understanding.

I'm so excited! We finally have baby shrimp in our tank! I'm guessing there are many more but it's hard to find these tiny cuties n a planted tank.

If you're interested in setting up a new tank or looking to add stock to a current set up, I highly recommend you check out Aqua Market. The staff are very knowledgeable and happy to help. Every time we go, I want to fill my house with aquariums so I can have all the beautiful bettas for myself!

This pretty girl used to hide when I came to visit, but now she uses me as a chair. In the three years I've been doing this, there have only been two cats I haven't been able to win over. 🥰

How it started and how it's going!

We started an aquarium with a substrate I hadn't used before, and, well, it was a learning experience.

After doing many water changes, running various filters and having lots of patience, the water cleared and we were able to add some danios and shrimp. It's been cycling for a few weeks now so we're looking forward to adding more creature friends. Ben has been doing fish research and is interested in adding more colourful shrimp, or perhaps some pom pom crabs. He also wants to do a planted tank (hence the substrate) so there's lots to look forward to!

Magma says, "Don't forget about me!"

I have a few spots left for pet/home sitting this long weekend. If you're heading out of town and need somebody to look after things while you're away, let me know!

When Cleo thinks she's not getting enough attention, she crawls onto my lap, makes this face and taps me with her paw. It works every time.

Our algae eating shrimp, Pinchy, just moulted! I'm leaving these two pieces of their exoskeleton in the water for them to munch on and replenish nutrients lost in the process. It's hard work growing a new exoskeleton, and invertebrates are very vulnerable while the new one hardens. Pinchy is hiding at the moment, but will soon be out and about, keeping the aquarium tidy.

Growing up in the country, I have always loved animals. One of my first pets was a cat named Betty, a gift from my grandpa to take care of the mice that might try to infiltrate our house. Turns out Betty was pregnant, and soon having multiple cats around at all times became the norm. Besides our sheepdog and some fish, the neighbour's chickens, cows and horses also became creatures I considered part of our family. On occasion, I'd "help" with cows during calving season, and one newborn calf mistook me for its mother after she ran away into the pasture.

Over the years, I had pet mice, hamsters, a guinea pig, anole, snake, hedgehog, newts, millipedes, rabbits, many tanks of freshwater fish, several dogs and birds. While I love all animals (except spiders), birds hold a particularly special place in my heart.

While going to college, I worked in the birds and small animal department of a pet store. I learned a lot about animal care, and gained experience with chinchillas and ferrets.

With a maiden name of Marshall, meaning somebody who cares for horses, and a married name of Schaefer, German for shepherd, looking after animals is my destiny! 😄

This is my own fuzzy baby, Cleo. We got her in 2019 after my son donated his birthday money to the humane society. How could we not bring this face home?
