I have been around animals my entire life, I am 20 years old and from childhood have always been around dogs and cats and horses the list goes on..
I used to own a beautiful old english sheep dog as seen in some of the photos but unfortunately she passed away from old age a couple years back. I now own a ginger cat eli who loves ranging around the titirangi bush and coming home at night to sleep and cuddle! I also own a horse who does not live at my house but have had him for about 5 years now. I am a uni student and also have work so your dog will need to be okay being left alone at home for a couple hours a day.
I have experience with all sorts of dogs from chihuahuas and pugs to german sheperds and more! I have experience training pushy and energetic dogs. I have no problem taking dogs for a walk and know how to handle them when they get excited etc. I have also had many cats in my life and know how to handle shy and skitish cats etc. Also have experience with bunnies and rats and guinea pigs as I used to work on a kids holiday farm where I was in charge of all the small animals. Have about 14+ years of horse care and riding experience and am currently working on a farm part time training horses where there are also different farm animals that I take care of sometimes, so experience with cows, sheep and pigs is another thing I offer.I many times house sit my friends house which is on a farm where I look after her 7 horses and her high energy vizsla and german shepherd. Have also had friends leave their dogs at my house for weeks and even months on end and it was a great time for me and the animal.
I am available for home drop-ins to check house and feed any and all animals, pick-ups and drop offs and dog walks around auckland and also available for at home service and stay and house sitting.
For the at home service I am happy to look after your pet for as long as needed I have a big open backyard for running around space and toilet, a balcony at the front that is closed off and very big, when I used to have my dog we had a kennel there and would put a mattress down so that your pet can have outside time while being gated off. I am happy for your pet to sleep inside or outside completely depending on your personal choice and would be best to be provided a bed for the dog to sleep on but I can provide if needed. I have a cat at home who is a bit shy so will probably be very out of the way for your animal anyway and wont be causing much disturbance.
I have my own big 4wd with a big boot or back seat for your dog to sit on and a full license. There are beautiful dog friendly beaches and bushwalks located all around the waitakere region where I live and have alot of experience taking dogs here, am very happy to take your dog for daily walks around the neighbourhood and to the beach whenever as this is something I love doing aswell.
I am new to this app and have only just started but can promise I will provide your pets with the utmost care and love as I am also a very overprotective owner and know what its like trusting your loved ones in someone elses hands. Will provide you with all information and reassurance you want and am a very good communicator:)
I look forward to meeting your beloved pets (and u ofc!)
