Hi! 👋🏼

My name is Nadia and I am a 22 year old veterinary nursing student based in Christchurch.

I have 3 dogs of my own who are all a part of the family. A German shorthaired pointer, lab x and a cheeky fox terrier!

I have grown up with all sorts of animals (rabbits, dogs, cats, chickens and even sheep) and have also been involved in breeding both detection and family dogs in the past.

I have over 4 years dog handling/care experience at a boarding kennel, (this includes a current supervisor role) and pet first aid certificate.

I am in my final year of veterinary nursing studies so have knowledge/experience of small animal health, first aid, administering medications, and animal behaviour. I have done placements with private clinics and shelters.

I love working with animals and find so much joy in developing relationships with the dogs in my care, each one is treated like they are my own!

It is important to me that there is a trusting relationship between me, your pet and you as the owner! Questions are always welcome and I would love to meet your pet before commencing on walks/visits.

I am well equipped with safety and first aid equipment for walks, and always will always keep you as the owner informed on what we are up to, even sending a few pics of your dog having fun out walking!

- Walks:

I will take your dog to a nearby park, beach or around a calm neighborhood (on leash) unless the area is fully fenced and I am confident with your dog's recall! These will go for 30 minutes and photo updates can be provided!

- Home visits:

I will come to check on your pet for approx 45-60 minutes and play with them, allow them to go toilet and feed/administer medications if required.

- House Sitting:

I am happy to look after your pets while staying and ensuring they are walked, happy and healthy!

I can provide a variety of references, along with a police check. I have a clean full license with a dog seatbelt 🐾

I'm looking forward to meeting your furry friend!🩷
