About Erin

**Available over Christmas/NY period for feeding**

Kia ora, I’m Erin! I currently work as a lecturer as Victoria University. I grew up around animals my whole life and I love them with all my being. As a child and into my teenage years I lived on a lifestyle block where I had my own horses who I looked after for ten years. 

As well as dogs, cats, chickens, cows and at times even some pigs. In my adult years I missed animals, so I volunteered at the SPCA for three years in the big dog pens cleaning up after the dogs and giving them the love and cuddles they deserved. Following that I adopted my own older cat, who was three legged and blind. Sadly, we had to get her put down last year but I was so happy I could give her a great last few final years. Growing up around different animals has given me confidence around animals, as well as a big appreciation for understanding that each animal is so different in their on individual personality and needs. Throughout my life I have also been responsible for looking after animals with needs, and animals who require medication. Therefore, am confident in giving medication to animals if needed. 

I also will send pictures of your animals and provide daily updates!

House Sitting
Sarah, 2024-08-18

We loved having Erin house sit and look after our two furbabies whilst we were overseas. Everyday she provided us with photos and an update on our older dog, whom had been diagnosed with a heart condition mere days before we left on holiday. As you can imagine we felt a little worried about leaving her, but Erin's communication, care, ability to administer meds and attention to our animals wellbeing made us feel at ease.

Erin will be a welcome repeat sitter for us in the future and we would recommend her to all.
