About Alex

Kia ora!

My name is Alex and I'm currently studying Bachelor of Veterinary Science in Massey University. I came to New Zealand 2 years ago from South Korea.

I am currently living in a flat with a 16 y/o dog, 2 cats and 3 chickens. Every evening I would go for a walk with the dog so I would say walking a dog is one of the things I enjoy! Previously I lived with two cats (a rag doll and short haired ginger cat). I have volunteered in the Massey-SPCA desexing clinic and have experience in administering medications to cats. 

I can go for a short / long walk, pet sit, groom your pet(s), etc! The dog walks will be roughly between 30 minutes and 1 hour but depending on the dog's age and health condition I can be flexible with the time. I offer not only walking but also other fun activities such as frisbee throwing.

During the house sitting, I will be able to stay in the house overnight. I would usually read or do my assignments while looking after your pet(s). I can also run errands such as watering plants, bringing in the mail or hanging your laundry.

I am usually available in the morning or early arvo as I go to the gym in the late afternoon. However, I can easily change my schedule for your pet. 

I have my own car with a full license which means I can also go for a drive or a stroll along the beach with your pet(s). Since I play football and go to the gym regularly, I am confident that your pet will take a good nap after the walk :)

I will do my best to give all my attention to your pet(s). During the service I will take photos and send them to you so you know what your pet is up to!

I love all animals and I can promise that I will take care of your pet(s) as I well as i do with mine.

Also, I am fully vaccinated and a non-smoker.

Thank you
