My partner Callum and I are huge animal lovers but unfortunately are not at a stage of life to be able to commit to one of our own. 

We both grew up with dogs, Collies for myself and Retrievers and springer spaniels for Callum, so we are very used to high energy dogs who need lots of exercise! My last Collie only had 3 legs and needed more love and attention then a fully able-bodied dog on walks etc.

I also have experience in raising and training guide-dog puppies. 

I have done a heap of dog and cat sitting in both Ireland and New Zealand.
I have looked after a family of 3 dogs for 4 weeks including one dog with behavioural issues.
We have also pet sat for friends and colleagues all around Queenstown and surrounding areas. Happy to provide references for this. 

We are both in our mid 30s, responsible with full time jobs (I work in a dog friendly office so multiple river walks guaranteed) We have been living in Queenstown for 5+ years, and love getting out into nature, long walks and bike rides.

We both miss having pets and would love to spend some time with your four legged friends!
