Kia ora! 🐾

I know firsthand how challenging it can be to find the right person to look after your furry (or feathery, or scaly!) family members. My motivation as a pet sitter comes from understanding how important it is to feel completely at ease when you leave your pets behind. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind so you can travel stress-free, knowing your beloved pets are in capable, loving hands.

They are family, and they deserve patience, attention, and genuine affection. I take pride in creating a calm, safe environment where your pets feel happy and safe, and you can rest assured that I will treat your pets and your home with the same respect I would my own.

My Experience

I am fortunate enough to have always had animals, and in recent years, I’ve regularly pet-sat for others, and volunteered at rescue animal farms. 

Here is a bit more about my background:

Cats: I have a massive soft spot for feline friends! Whether your cat requires extra attention and play, or is on the shy side and just needs quiet, respectful companionship, I am great at reading their boundaries. 

Dogs: I have lifelong experience with various breeds and temperments; bouncy, nervous, active or couch-potato! I have a special expertise with sighthounds (like greyhounds and whippets) and poodles. I understand their unique temperaments and quirks well.

Horses & Farm Animals: I have over 7 years of equestrian experience, including stable care, riding, and lunging. I am very comfortable administering basic care and keeping large animals calm and content.

Small Pets & Exotics: I've had and cared for a variety of small animals-- including rabbits, birds, fish, and chickens-- even axolotls!

What I Offer

I am great at following strict instructions and respecting the individual boundaries of every animal I meet. I currently offer the following services:

House Sitting: Overnight care in your home so your pet can stay in their familiar environment.

Home Visits: Dropping in to feed, play with, and check on your pets.

Dog Walking: Tailored to your dog's energy levels and training needs.

Bonus Home Care: In addition to animal care, I am highly attentive to household needs. While you are away, I am more than happy to water plants, bring in the mail, take out the bins, and ensure your home stays secure and well-maintained.

If you have any questions or want to arrange a meet-and-greet, please feel free to reach out. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!
