Hey there! I'm Noora, 30, from Finland, recently moved to New Zealand. I'm an ex-Olympic athlete now in between jobs, and one of the things I miss most from home is being around my dogs, so I'd love to spend time with yours. I'm free during the day to offer dog walking or daycare.

• 🏃‍♀️ I'm sporty and outdoorsy, so I'm up for it if your dog loves a good run or beach play. I also like finding fun ways to keep them engaged and mentally stimulated, such as little games, runs, or just letting them do their thing with other dogs if that's their vibe.
• 🐶 We always had dogs growing up, and I've looked after all sorts over the years, from big dogs to tiny chihuahuas, pups, oldies, deaf and blind dogs. I often care for my sister's farm dogs, an australian shepherd and a cocker spaniel, and I have a springer spaniel myself, back home in Finland. Over 15 years, I've helped friends and family with their fur babies, usually for a week or so. While I can't do overnight care here, I'm happy to help during the day.
• Most importantly, I always ensure your dog gets to know me first by building respect and trust so they feel safe and can have a good time.
• My fees are flexible; just let me know your needs, and we'll find a solution.

Dogs I've cared for more than a couple of days: Springer, Cavalier King, Cocker spaniels, Dashounds, Pugs, Chihuahuas, Australian Sheppard, medium-sized Mixed breeds, White Swiss Shepherd Dogs, Rhodesian Ridgeback, Golden Retriever.

I'm native in English, Swedish and Finnish.
