Hi! I'm Isabella, an animal lover from Argentina currently living in Hamilton, New Zealand.I grew up in a small town surrounded by animals. I have always lived with dogs and cats, and I also spent a lot of time on my family's farm, caring for horses, chickens, sheep and cows. Looking after animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have a dog and a cat back in Argentina who are now being cared for by my mum, and I miss them every day. Since moving to New Zealand, I've completed two house-sitting stays in Hamilton: one caring for a dog and a cat, and I'm currently looking after a home with two lovely cats. I also have experience walking dogs and caring for friends and neighbours pets, either by visiting their homes or looking after them in mine. I owned a Poodle, so I'm familiar with grooming, allergies and the special care some dogs require. I offer house sitting, dog walking and home visits. I'm reliable, responsible, tidy and respectful of other people's homes. I'll follow your pet's routine, provide lots of love and attention. I always adapt my care to each pet’s personality, age and routine. Walks are tailored to each dog’s needs: a calm 30-minute walk for senior or less active dogs, or up to an hour of exercise for energetic dogs who enjoy running and exploring. Whether your pet is energetic, shy or senior, I will make sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages, so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. If an emergency ever arises, I will contact you immediately. I have my own car and can take your pet to the veterinarian if needed. The thing I enjoy most is the connection with animals. Being away from my own pets has made me appreciate even more how special they are, and caring for other people's pets truly makes me happy. I would love to meet you and your furry family! I also have references from families I have house-sat and cared for pets for in Hamilton, and I’d be happy to share them if you’d like.
