Natasha

Hi there, I am Natasha and I am in my early 50's and live in Takapu Valley in Wellington.

I currently live on a lifestyle block with 2 horses, 5 sheep, 3 chickens and a cat. I love hanging with the animals and my idea of a lovely afternoon is hanging on the front lawn with all the animals. I also love teaching my animals tricks. One of my horses kicks a ball with her front foot and the other rolls a ball with her nose. Our cat does all sorts of tricks including sit, high five, and jumping my arm.  

I have owned horses most of my adult life, initially on other people properties, and, for the last 12 or so years, on our own property. In my teens and twenties I worked a lot with all types of horses, both in NZ and in the UK. Most places I have worked with horses or kept my horses have had dogs, and I love hanging out with them. Since we moved on to our lifestyle block, I have learnt about keeping chickens and raised lambs most years. I have raised orphan lambs too and the highlight of my year is spoiling the lambs for their first month of life. Growing up, my family always had cats and my friends alwayes had cats and dogs.  

I have worked mostly in government and am currently between jobs so have lots of flexibility for walks or visits throughout the day. I own my own car, so can pick up pets and take them for walks. I am confident administering medication to horses, sheep and pets, and am happy to do injections if needed.

I am avaliable for dog walks of around half an hour, but could do longer walks if required. I am happy to cater to the needs of your animal.

I look forward to hearing from you!
