Erin

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 want to pet sit because I miss having an animal of my own. I have previous experience pet sitting. I will love your animal like they are my own and will take great care of them (as well as your house).   

 I work from home so am very flexible on my availability. I can stay for as short or as long as you like and i'm happy to water the plants and bring in the mail.

When I come to look after or feed your animals I can offer feeding, pet sitting and am comfortable with administering medication to animals. 

I am also available to house sit for short or long periods. If you have any further questions just sing out.
