About Sarah

Services for dog walking:

- Flexible times available throughout the week

- I can provide regular weekly walking appointments if it suits my schedule 

- Can provide long or short dog walks or runs

- I have a vehicle so I can walk your dog in any desired location

- I can confidently control larger energetic dogs


Services for pet minding/visits:

- I am happy to do multiple visits for pet minding and feeding

- I work 9-5 and can work remotely 1-2 days a week, so for any house sitting services this must be considered


About me:

Animals are a great passion of mine, and I thoroughly enjoy pet-sitting and dog walking. After many years of pet sitting & dog walking in Christchurch and around Europe, I have become very confident with animals of all shapes and sizes. 

I have experience and confidence with all types of dogs, cats & smaller pets. I also have experience caring for elderly dogs and cats with complex medication requirements, and have cared for a small lifestyle block with chickens and sheep. 

As a homeowner myself, I am very respectful of the homes where I pet-sit, and leave them very clean. I understand the responsibility of looking after beloved family pets and homes. I am also a very confident and keen dog walker. As a runner, I can take more energetic dogs for longer runs. 

I hope you consider me for pet sitting and dog walking services.
