I've been a pet industry professional for the past 6 years and I specialise in fish, cat, and small animal care, but am also capable and confident with all manner and size of dogs, and experienced assisting dog groomers.
My friends and family describe me as gifted with animals and extremely caring. I own 2 cats, 2 rats, a rabbit and tropical aquariums. I have always been strongly connected with animals and their wellbeing is my first priority.
I have an NZQA Certificate in fish care and am very knowledgeable about a variety of freshwater fish and aquariums. Ask about my fish care offerings.
I am very experienced with rabbits, guinea pigs, rabbits, birds, and even turtles and reptiles. I have an interest in all exotic and unusual pets, as well as of course cats and dogs. I have assisted vet nurses and vet clinics with medication administration and am highly experienced with cage cleans.
I am a practitioner of the Jackson Galaxy way when it comes to cat care and behavior. I have also fostered rescue kittens in the past, and been a part of remedial action for some of the most serious medical situations with cats and kittens.
I have experienced assisting dog groomers, especially with dogs which are difficult to handle and require extra care. I am also knowledgeable about dog training theory and nutrition.
I have my own vehicle with a full clean NZ drivers license. I live in a pet friendly rental in Goldfield Heights. I also have a fully self contained caravan where I can house animals. When I keep animals in my caravan I stay with them and supervise and keep things warm. If necessary I also have access to a large sized dog crate.
I grew up in Queenstown and my family still lives here. I am very familiar with all of the areas.
