Heartfelt care for your pets ~ Real support for your family

Whether it’s a fresh hydrobath, a helping paw with emotional regulation, or loving care while you're away – you and your pet are in safe, loving hands.

About Me

This business was born from real life – from the messiness, the meltdowns, the moments of doubt… and the magic of what happens when we invite dogs into our healing journey. 🐶💛

I know what it’s like to feel exhausted, isolated, and like nothing’s working. That’s why I’ve created a safe, supportive space where families (and their furry friends) can feel seen, understood, and truly cared for.

Everything I do is built on honesty, integrity, and a deep love for community. Whether you’re here for a gentle dog wash, canine-assisted learning support, or someone to love your pets while you’re away – I’ve got you.

What Are Our Participants Saying ?

Highly recommend Paws and More. We recently had to leave town quickly and at a moments notice, Amanda was able to step in and look after our fur babies. Daily photos and updates were an added bonus.

Before joining the program, my daughter struggled with emotional outbursts. The emotional support dogs have provided her with comfort and have helped us communicate better as a family.

This program has been life-changing for our family. We’ve learned so many strategies to support our neurodivergent son, and we finally feel empowered.

Yes! Many of my clients access Canine-Assisted Learning through their NDIS plans. I’m happy to help you figure out how to include it in your supports.

Absolutely. I specialise in supporting children with emotional challenges like anxiety, ADHD, ASD, and trauma. Sessions are gentle, fun, and always tailored to your child’s pace.
