From my childhood to the present day, animals have always been a great passion of mine and played a major role in my life. Over the years, I have loved and cared for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and fish. I am comfortable looking after any pet, big or small!. 

I have years of dog walking and pet sitting experience, starting around when I was 15 years old. I am familiar with this app as I have had it before and have had many pet sitting and dog walking clients, so I know how paw shake works. 

Currently, I am the owner of a disabled dog, Hazel, a huntaway who requires a lot of special care and attention. This has given me plenty of experience and knowledge in providing care to pets with unique requirements, if you have one!.

I love meeting new animals, and I am dedicated to using my experience to ensure every pet I care for has their needs met, wether its giving the exercise they need, play time, following specific requirements, or simply offering some comforting companionship while you are away. I strive to treat every pet I take care of as if they were my own.

I am very familiar with plenty of local nature walks and reserves in Havelock North, Hastings, and Napier, where I can take your dog for walks, as I have my own mode of transport as well. My walks can be from 30 minutes to an hour, depending on your dog's needs; typically, my usual is 45 minutes. I can take up to 2 dogs at a time. I will keep them on a leash unless you have told me that they are allowed off. If your dog is aggressive with other dogs, I will need to know of a private area to walk them. Depending on your dog's agility, I can take them on more challenging walks up hills or take them for a leisurely stroll. 

I work a part-time job 2 to 3 days a week, usually from 9 to 5, my days can change, but right now I am always working Mondays. I still do dog walks and visits around these times and can still pet sit if your pet is comfortable being by themselves for a little while during the week. 

I can communicate through this app and mobile if you prefer, and I will give you text and picture updates of your pet. If there is an emergenceny I will contact you immediately through these. If I am pet sitting for you while you are away, it is also helpful for me to have your veterinarian's information in case of emergency.
