About Joel

Hi!

My name is Joel and I am currently a 21 year old university student living in the Auckland CBD. I study remotely from home doing a bachelor of building science at Victoria University, allowing for the opportunity for pet sitting and walking!

I have looked after pets my whole life, and over the years I have had 2 different dogs, and 3 cats! We got our current dog Zuko from a young puppy, and this has meant lots of walks, and training. He is large and very fast so learning how to handle such a dog has given me great skills and confidence. I can administer basic medication and first aid, and have access to a vehicle in the case of an emergency.

I love animals and taking care of them, and after moving away from home and the pets I would love the opportunity to work with some in the Auckland CBD! Due to the nature of my remote university work, I can relocate for the day to look after pets and can be with them for the whole day, or I can go on daily walks. My services include looking after your pets during the day at your place, or under the right circumstances overnight, as well as walking one dog at a time!

Thanks for considering me

Joel

Joel was a great choice to walk my furbaby while I was away.

He was quick to respond and also very good with quirks of my furbaby.

Definitely recommend and will hire again
