Kia ora, I’m Juste 🐾

I grew up on a small farm surrounded by animals, so dogs, cats and all sorts of furry (and sometimes not-so-furry) friends have always been part of my life. I’ve had dogs as an adult too, I genuinely love the companionship, personality and little routines that come with having animals around.

Since moving to NZ, I’ve always wanted my own dog, because I love travelling, I know it wouldn’t be fair to keep a dog if I’m often away. You travel, I get to hang out with your furry friend. Everyone wins. 🐶❤️

I’m happy to house and pet sit, taking care of your pets while also looking after your home. I’m an active person and love being outdoors. Sunrise and sunset walks are an essential part of my day, so I’m very happy to include walks, playtime and outdoor adventures when that suits your pet. I also enjoy quiet time at home and am happy to adapt to your pet’s routine and needs.

I’m a group fitness instructor (yoga, pilates, surf), so I’m generally flexible and around during the day. I teach a few classes in the mornings and some evenings Monday –Thursday, but outside of those commitments my schedule is quite flexible.

I’m happy to look after your pets and your home, follow their usual routines, give them plenty of cuddles, walks, playtime and attention — whatever makes them happy and comfortable. Depending on your pet’s needs, I can arrange my schedule so they’re not left alone for long periods. I’m also happy to follow their normal feeding, walking and sleeping routines.

While you’re away, I’ll keep your home secure, treat it with the same care and respect as my own, and keep you updated with messages and a few cute photo reports along the way. 📸🐶

If anything unexpected happens, I’ll contact you straight away and follow your instructions, and I’m happy to take your pet to the vet if needed.

I’m comfortable with dogs, cats and other domestic animals and don’t have a “favourite type” — I’m an equal-opportunity animal lover.

My goal is simple: you enjoy your trip, your home stays looked after, and your pets get plenty of love while you’re away. 🌿🐾
