About Fiona

Hi, My name is Fiona. After a couple of years off I've decided to return to Pawshake! I was the top dog-sitter in Auckland in 2015/16.

I'm 34 years old living in Meadowbank with my partner and our golden doodle Chilli🌶️ . 

We own our fully fenced home which is close to Orakei basin and several of Auckland's beautiful parks. I run my business and work part-time from the comfort of my home - which leaves plenty of time for pooches!
** The one exception to this is Wednesdays when I need to be in the city for a half day.

What you get when you pick me:

🐾 My schedule means I have tons of time to play/cuddle 

🐾 Extra doggy company and play time with Chilli 

🐾I have years of experience with all sorts of doggos

🐾I send photo updates and love discovering each pet's personality and quirks. I even have an Instagram devoted to the pups I look after @fiona_the_dogminder

🐾Your pooch will get walkies and be in a safe, warm, sunny and clean home.

About Chilli: Gentle & friendly in nature she's almost a year old. She can be shy around larger or male dogs. She's obsessed with her orange ball (and is happy to share it!). She can be a bit barky when meeting dogs due to the excitement, but she soon settles.

I truly adore spending time with animals, and I look forward to getting to know you and your pet!!

While I would love to take on EVERY dog, I do have a few requirements: Your pet needs to be worm and flea-free. Your pet must be toilet trained and their vaccinations need to be up to date. A meet-and-greet is a must.

These rules are to protect all the lovely pups that come through our home, as well as our princess :)

Fiona was great. Excellent communication. Very accommodating to requests. And looked after Waggs very well. Would go with again if ever Waggs needed a place to stay in.

We were very happy from the moment our dog was dropped off at Fiona's house. It was wonderful to receive both messages and photos throughout her stay. Orsa appeared to have a great time and Fiona is lovely. Would definitely recommend.

I have been a pet sitter on Pawshake off and on (when time/work allowed) for many years now and was a Pawshake Marketing employee in 2015-2016. As one of Pawshake first sitters I made it to the no.1 pet sitting spot, and was interviewed on the AM Show. I was a volunteer at a veterinary clinic in Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates), I grew up with pets and I live with my pooch Chilli🌶️
