Hi I'm Arianna :) 

I really enjoy working with animals I Have grown up with cats my whole life, have also had rabbits, fish, a frog and dog. I Currently Live with my dog Phoenix and cat Poppy plus in home board Yogi. Who has been staying will us coming up 4 months, total planned stay of 6 months. I have really enjoyed having yogi around big snuggle bug and loves to play. When I was younger I took Riding lessons at the Waikato Equestrian Centre which I then volenteered for weekend shifts and holiday programs for about 9months to a year, tacking up, mucking out, grooming, feeding, rugging..etc. I have done a bit of dog grooming for 2 years now, and have done the ocasional pet sitting of cats and dogs. which I now plan on making into something more regular, and will be doing my Pet First Aid Training in August.

I have played around in some dog sports including, agility, bikejoring, canicross, tracking and dog dance. Along the way learning dog strengthening exercises, stretches, warm ups, and light massage. Doing work to help prevent injuries and rehabilite those that have, my goal is to keep dogs healthy, strong and fit so that they can live long happy fun and Healthy lives :) 

I currently work as a high school rowing coach so during november, december, january, february and march i will be unavailiable for almost every second weekend as i will be out all weekend at regattas.
