Alisha

Kia ora! I am originally from The US but have been living here in NZ and Tauranga for 10 years now. I love animals of all shapes and sizes and am passionate about each and every one of them living their best lives! I grew up spending summers on my uncle's sheep farm, and with my own cats, dogs, and birds- so the love has been engrained in me from the very beginning. 

I worked for 4 years at Papamoa Kennels and Cattery where I learned how to care for animals under a qualified experience vet. I am confident administering medications and knowing all the signs of a happy and healthy pet! I have continued dog walking and occassional pet sitting since then, but with a more flexible job now I am excited to have more time to commit to those who may need a little extra supoprt. 

I have one cat of my own but definitely miss being around dog energy as well. My house unfortunately isn't suitable to host as I don't have a fenced in yard, but I am more than happy to come stay with your pets in their own home, or provide daily walks for those pets that enjoy the exercise outside. I am available most times of the day so can be flexible when providing walks and can do walks 30-60mins at a time. I can be available for any length of house stays- one night or one month!
