I am a married mother of two children and we live in Milford on the North Shore in Auckland. My boy, Beau, is 12 and my girl, Blake, is 9 and they both go to local schools. My husband is a detective with the NZ Police. I am a stay at home Mum as my boy has some extra needs so I help at school a fair bit.

Our 4yr old cavoodle, Hattie, is a form of therapy dog for Beau. She's energetic yet calm and is treated like another child in our family. She has changed our lives for the best and we love her to bits! She's great with other dogs and people. We have a fully fenced property and lots of toys and beds to share! Hattie loves company and I never leave her too long on her own. She's my best friend. We exercise together and enjoy being outdoors.

We live in a new 4 bedroom house with fabulous indoor outdoor flow and your dog will be free range. We're close to beaches and parks so there are many options to exercise the dogs.

I'd love to be able to meet other families with dogs and help out when I can to look after their pets as I know I couldn't put my Hattie in kennels if we went away. I'm happy to fit in with any families needs and can be available short or long term. We'd love to meet you and promise to look after your dog as we do our own.

Please note: for my doggy daycare service, I would prefer short term, as opposed to permanent. If you are looking for long term care then I'm happy to job share with another carer or doggy daycare service. I also have contacts that I can job share with.

Hattie and I look forward to meeting you!
