Hi, my name is Jash and I have been living in New Zealand for the last 10 years. I am originally from Fiji but had moved to New Zealand with my family for a new start and a new adventure. I have been working in the hospitality industry for the last 8 years which a has served me well as it has given me valuable insight and key communication skills. I am now furthering a change of scenery and planning to travel around New Zealand in the hopes of discovering new passions and ideas. Self growth is a massive thing for myself and I have realised in the last few years how much I have been missing what I am most passionate about, animals!
I am not a professional but looking after animals was not an issue. I grew up with 6 large dogs, 7 cats, 4 Guinea pigs and a tank filled with tropical fish. You can say it was a busy house hold! Animals have always been a key part of my life, however, since moving to New Zealand, it was hard having any as I have been travelling alot. So why not mix the two?! I am now travelling and planning on looking after animals where ever I go- short term or long term.
I am a quick learner, neat and tidy, have a strong attention to detail, self motivated, kind and compassionate and can follow through with tasks without any hassle.
Key skills which I can provide:
Cleaning kitty litters, feeding animals with food and water according to schedules provided, exercising/playing/walking dogs and cats, basic grooming (washing) dogs with animal friendly products. I can tidy up the house as well if I am to stay the night. I am aware of medications and can easily follow through with safe handling and medicating animals with clear guideline and instructions.
I am able to take care of cats, dogs and fish. I have no restrictions on dog sizes except for perhaps Great Danes, but what are the chances of that 😂. I have looked after a few large dog breeds and they are quite fun!
I am able to do once or twice a day visits and or 24 hour house sits but will happily discuss further with the house owners regarding their requirements. I will be travelling alone but I do have a partner who lives in New Plymouth who may visit on rare occasions however , I solely will be doing the house sitting.
I look forward to this new and exciting chapter of my life and as a house sitter, look forward to meeting and making new friends and fur- friends!!!
I am happy to answer any further questions and discuss any further requirements if necessary.
JASH was great with our dogs, she thought of everything & was so enthusiastic for their walks. Her communication with us was quick & thorough, would recommend Jash to others.
As mentioned, I am not a professional however, I am able to follow through with strict and safe instructions. I have worked as a Duty Manager for the last 5 years but in hospitality for 8 so I am well aware of meeting specific requirements and being in a management position. I have clean record and can happily provide a police clearance if necessary. I have also recently completed a business administration course which I hope to use while travelling as well.
