I am an outdoorsy, fun loving, University student with a passion for animals. I have three cats named Goldie, Motly and Vixen as well as a Boston terrier named Aggie. My passion and Love for Animals has stemmed from a young age. Having grown up in South Africa, I was raised with animals such as Snakes, Lizards, Birds, Fish, Cats, Dogs and evening an Exoctic spider or two. Not only was I raised with animals of all different kinds but I have also been riding horses since the age of three and I am now studying to become a Zoologist with a minor in Marine Biology. I have previous experience volunteering at the SPCA and plan on doing some volunteering at the Dunedin bird Aviary.
I decided to become a pet sitter because I enjoy spending time with any animal you can think of.
The services I offer are Dog walking for possibly an hour or more maybe multiple times a day. I also do home visit
in your own home for an hour a day or even overnight where your pet will get a lot of attention, and for those busy pet owners, I can stop in to feed and check on your pets while you are away or at work.
I have a full clean drivers license with my own vehicle so I am able to make my way to wherever you may stay so that I can care for pets while you are away, walk them for you or maybe just feed and check on them. Whether your pets are large, small, fluffy or full of scales I love looking after all of them.
Ariel was great with my 5 month old puppy. She sent daily updates and photos, and puppy seemed to be having a great time with her. I would definitely book her again!
We were absolutely delighted with the service Ariel provided. Came home to a very happy cat :-)
As I mentioned previously I am an Otago university Student studying Zoology. I have also previously Volunteered at the SPCA, and I have worked alongside dog trainers.
