About Halima

House Sitter | Pet Sitter | Wellington South Suburbs (Newtown, Kilbirnie, Berhampore, Island bay, Lyall Bay, Kingston, Miramar) 

Hello and Talofa lava! I’m Halima — a caring, reliable, and experienced pet sitter based in Wellington.

I’m a lifelong animal lover, originally from South Auckland, now based in the Wellington Southern suburbs. Growing up with cats, kittens, and even the occasional bird has given me a deep, nurturing connection to animals. Over the years, I’ve continued to support animals by:

  • Sponsoring orphaned elephants via Sheldrick Wildlife Trust 🐘
  • Supporting local animal opshops & SPCA Wellington
  • Creating enrichment toys from recycled materials

Current Availability (now –):

I’m currently available for day visits/check-ins and dog walking. I have experience caring for cats, dogs, and other animals — including elderly or anxious pets. I’m tidy, respectful, and treat every home as if it were my own. Since I don’t have my own transport, I prioritize bookings for homes near public bus routes or within walking distance. 

🐶🐈🦎 What I Offer

Daily Visits (25–30 mins):

  • Feeding and fresh water
  • Playtime, enrichment, and cuddles (based on your pet’s preferences)
  • Litter cleaning or toilet breaks
  • Photo and message updates
  • Basic plant watering, mail collection, curtain/lights adjustment
  • Garden weeding or rubbish put-out (on request)

Dog Walking:

  • Available for small and medium-sized dogs
  • I walk one dog at a time only — I do not take multiple dogs on a single walk.
  • For day visits/check-ins, dog walking is a separate service
  • For overnight stays (dog walking is included in the overnight sitting fee)

Overnight Stays:

  • Overnight companionship for pets and home security
  • Feeding, cuddles, enrichment, and dog walks included
  • Ideal for longer trips or pets needing steady care

💖 Why Book Me?

  • Calm, patient, and respectful of your pet’s routine
  • Especially experienced with 🐈 cats and kittens, also happy to care for:
    • 🐶 Small to medium-sized dogs
    • 🦎 Low-maintenance pets like reptiles
  • Reliable and communicative (daily updates)
  • Trustworthy, with references available upon request
  • Happy to meet in advance for a no-obligation intro
  • 10% discount for repeat pet owners who would like one — optional. Some clients prefer to pay my full rate, which is completely fine. The discount will be manually applied at the time of booking if requested.

If you’re looking for someone who truly cares for your animals like family, I’d love to chat. Whether you need a few days or a few weeks of care, I’m ready to step in — and I travel light!

Let’s connect and see if I’m the right fit for your furry family. 🐾
