Ruth did an excellent job. We were overseas for a month and she looked after my cat as I do. She kept me updated and sent me pictures everyday. I'm very grateful and lucky to have found her.

Skills

Specific Skills

I speak English
< 5 years of experience
Familiar with dog training techniques

I'm best with cats, been around them my whole life, but I'm good with dogs, never let go of the leash when walking, especially with those big boys!

If I take the dogs out for a long walk where they get quite dirty (along the beach/river) I make sure they are well cleaned down and dry before they're allowed inside!

I volunteered at the SPCA Canterbury for a year and a half before I moved up to Auckland to begin studying Animal Sciences. Hoping to obtain a Diploma in Veterinary Nursing when I am done (2017).
