About me:

Animals have always been a big part of my life. Most recently I was living in Australia with my sister and her Bernese Mountain dog (prominently featured in my pictures). I have now moved back to NZ and don't have any pets as I am wanting to continue travelling, but am missing the companionship of animals. Hopefully my photos show my love for animals, however I cannot emphasize this point enough. Despite having a mild allergy to pet hair, I would prefer to have animals around than not to. If I got to a party and there is a dog there, I am the person who will spend the whole time with said dog.

I am very comfortable being around a variety of sizes of dogs - my sister's dog is approx. 50kg and wasn't aware of his size, however this was never an issue for me.

Services:

• Dog walking - depending on your dog and activity level they're used to as to how long the walk would be. For bigger dogs, generally approximately an hour per walk, however am open to making this longer or shorter depending on your dog.

• Dec 2018-Jan 2019 - Staffy x (rescue dog) - approx. 2.5 weeks
• Sept - Oct 2018 - Bernese Mountain Dog - 3 weeks (this is the dog I was living with, but this is when my sister was away and he was under my sole care)
• Aug 2015 - 3 Alaskan Malamutes - approx. 2.5 weeks
• June 2015 - (miniature?) Poodle and cat - approx. 2 weeks

• 3 cats from when I was 5 til 19
• A border collie until I was 7
• We had 2 kittens that we found abandoned and looked after these for approx. a month before they were strong enough to be adopted (their eyes hadn't even opened when they were found).
