Hi! I’m Daniela, from Chile, and I speak both English and Spanish. I’m 38 years old. My little family of three has been living in New Zealand for three and a half years, and we absolutely love it here! I consider myself a cheerful, energetic, affectionate, and attentive person. I’m so excited to meet some new pets! I grew up surrounded by animals; throughout my childhood, I had dogs, rabbits, and cats (we currently have two adorable cats named Pirata and Stanley, both adopted by our family). We’re a family of animal lovers—my partner is a veterinary technician, and every Christmas, my son asks Santa Claus for a dog! By profession, I’m a fashion designer and a barista, but honestly, this work is easily one of my favorite things to do! I have experience looking after dogs and cats, and I generally connect really well with them—which is fantastic! If you need someone to look after your pet, we can arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand to get to know each other and go over your pet’s routines, preferences, and schedule. I’m here to help! I can stay at your home overnight, spending quality time in the environment where your pet feels most comfortable and at ease, while giving them all the affection they deserve. We can also go for one- or two-hour walks around the neighborhood. I have my own vehicle and a NZ driver’s license, so I can take your pet to the beach or the hills for a fun-filled day! If your pet has a vet appointment, I can take them there, and should anything unexpected come up (though let’s hope not, haha!), I know where to find emergency veterinary care—just for your peace of mind. I have full availability, especially during public holidays and holidays. Big furry hug!
