Hello! My name is Nicky and I'm a friendly, dependable animal lover. I've been passionate about pets for as long as I can remember, growing up surrounded by dogs, cats, chickens, budgies, fish, and the occasional hedgehog and rabbit.
I grew up on a rural block and work as an ecologist, where I have had a tonne of experience with animals of all walks of life and understand the needs of your animals to keep them 100% healthy and happy. I have two cats of my own (Olive and Jeri) and had two dogs who lived happy lives until their old age. Over the past 4 years I have had experience pet and house sitting everything from fish to dogs and chickens, and have recently moved back to Auckland where I hope I can continue looking after people's furry friends.
Whilst my cats are super friendly, they don't take well to newcomers so mean my home is generally unsuitable to house pets, however I am more than happy to come and visit/stay at your house to look after your pets, or walk any dogs that need that little bit more exercise. I also have my own transport should it be required. Overall, I am a reliable, committed, outgoing person who would love to help out you and your furry, feathered or scaled companions.

Nicky puppysat Lulu, our 5month old Puppy for the weekend with no dramas whatsoever. Nicky was so lovely to us and to Lulu and we'd happily recommend her and have her puppy sit for us again in the future.
I have a degree in zoology where we have practiced some animal husbandry and I have specific skills in aquatic animal care.
