My motivation to be a pet sitter comes purely from my love of animals. Growing up with dogs has always been a big part of my life — back home in Dunedin I have two dogs, Flynn (a Huntaway Heading cross) and Dylan (a Maltese Lhasa Apso), who have taught me so much about patience, care, and the joy that pets bring to a home.

I'm currently 22 and studying at the University of Auckland, so I completely understand how important it is for pet owners to find someone they can genuinely trust with their beloved animals while they're busy or away.

While I haven't had formal professional experience caring for other people's pets, I've grown up hands-on with our family dogs my whole life — feeding, walking, grooming, and giving them plenty of love and attention every day. Flynn and Dylan are quite different characters, which means I'm well used to adapting to different personalities and needs!

I welcome all pets into my home, vaccinated or not — every animal deserves great care and attention. I'm always happy to have a chat beforehand about your pet's specific routine, dietary needs, or quirks to make sure they feel as comfortable and settled as possible. Your pet's happiness and wellbeing is my absolute top priority!
