Hey! My name is James, I'm 18 years old, and I am currently in my final year of secondary school. For as long as I can remember I have loved animals, my family has never not had at least one pet, and we currently have 3 cats, a border collie, a rat, and a rabbit! I also have experience in petsitting and have been highly recommended for my work! I currently do weekly visits to a 4yr old German Shepherd who is completely untrustworthy of strangers, so you can feel comfort in knowing I work well with all types of dogs!

My services include:
• Dog walking - weekends only, 30mins-1hr, can match dogs energy level, if you have any specific routes you prefer I can follow this, will range from 1-3km depending on the dog
• Single home-visit - can do weekday afternoons (except Friday) if you are based in Te Awamutu and weekends if you are in Cambridge
• 2x home-visit + overnight stay - weekends only, can help out around the house if you would like (clean dishes, check for mail, etc.)
• Enclosure cleaning - can be done as part of overnight stay at extra cost dependant on enclosure size

For petsitting I will be feeding the animal its meal(s) and giving it the right amount of attention it needs for the length of time I am there. For a senior pet I can just sit with the animal so there is a person around and for a more energetic pet I will spend as much time playing with the animal as it wants to. For cats I can also clean their litter box for you.
I will always ensure that I send a photo to you proving that I am with your pet and will make sure the entire house is how it was when I arrived. I will check that the house is correctly locked up before leaving and, if you request it, let you know when I leave the house so you are aware of when I am done.

As I am currently still in school my availability is very restricted during term times. However, between terms and once school is officially over I will have much more availability on weekdays. I will be keeping my availability updated as accurate as possible.
