About Pearlyn

Hi! I'm Pearl, a pawrent to a special needs cat, Tobi. I'm also a mental health professional, a part-time postgrad student, and lover of the outdoors.

I have been partnering animals since 2017 in my professional work, and began pet-sitting in Dec 2022 to earn some extra income while on my Postgrad studies. Since then, I have been privileged to journey with clients whose animal companions have challenges such as epilepsy, slipped disc, separation anxiety, trauma and autism. 

I have a passion for animals of all sizes and species, and am excited to be able to support you by caring for your animal companions while you are away :)

I'm able to support you through these areas mainly:
1. Pet-sitting/House visits for both your big/small animal companions (includes playing, feeding, brushing, cleaning) -- $35 for 1-hour visit
2. Dog-walking -- $35 for 30 minute walk (I am quite flexible and if your dog enjoys a longer walk, or a jog, I'm happy to go up to 50 minutes at no additional fee)
3. Manual expression of the bladder if your cat is incontinent

In my professional work, I partner horses for therapeutic interventions. Therefore, I am confident working with large dogs and am also comfortable supporting senior dogs of any size should they require physical support. 

My philosophy: 

  • My approach in interacting with animals -- mutual respect, compassion, curiosity, and lots of love. Your babies will be cared for and loved just as if they were my own :)
  • I am also always respectful of all pet owners; I believe that they know what's best for their pet and always do what they can with what they have, so as a pet-sitter, I'm very aware of my role and am mindful to respect and follow the instructions given. 
 
Bonus:
  • I'm familiar with animal behaviour and have undergone animal communication courses with Lucia Meijer (Linking Awareness).
  • If you hire me, you will be supporting me in funding my postgraduate studies!

Feel free to contact me to discuss my availability and what I can support you with. 

Special requests are welcome too. 

KINDLY NOTE
1. The rates provided are for locations < 4km of my vicinity. Locations beyond 4km can be discussed and will include an additional transportation fee.
2. House-sitting rates are for a period of up to 5 hours. Do note that I currently do not provide 24hr house-sitting as I have a special needs cat that requires my care too. Thank you :)

I have nothing but positive things to say about Pearlyn! Communication is smooth and with fast response. And my dog is always excited to go for walks with Pearlyn too! Pearlyn even carried my dog when he was too lazy to walk, haha. Definitely recommended!

Pearlyn has been an excellent pet sitter! Very reliable, accountable and has a ginormous heart! She shares pictures and videos of the girls everytime she’s with them. Most importantly, our girls love her! Highly recommended!
