About Georgie & Tama

Hi everyone! 

We are Georgie (34) and Tama (33). Georgie is a clinical psychologist from the UK and Tama is a kiwi currently completing his teacher training. We lived in Sydney for 2 years, before re-locating to NZ in April 2025. We are both completely mad about animals and would absolutely love to look after yours! 

We both grew up with pets, and each have lots of experience of caring for dogs and cats. Georgie had many hamsters and Guinea pigs as a child, and Tama even had two pet rats when he was small! We don't currently have our own furry friend, but we plan to adopt in the next few months. 

Georgie works in the office most days, with wfh hours usually on Mondays and Fridays. We can try to be flexible around you and your pets needs - just send us an enquiry! We are both caring and responsible, and we understand the amount of work that goes into keeping a pet happy and healthy. 

Here are some common Q&A's that could be helpful in deciding if we are the right people for you and your pet/s: 

1.What is included in pet sitting/overnight stays?

Day time and evening feeds (as required), lots of walking, play and cuddles! We are also very comfortable administering any medication (tablet/liquid form) as required. 

2. Where will my pet sleep?

For overnights, we will usually place your pet in our lounge in their bed/crate (whichever you bring!). We understand that some dogs can struggle with separation and therefore might find it very hard being alone at night. For anxious pets, we can be flexible about proximity to us and happy for them to sleep in our room :)

3. What is your availability

Georgie works Monday - Friday, and Tama is studying through the week (part on campus, part at home). This means that we usually have availability for weekday and weekend pet boarding or home visits. We are around in the evenings most nights and have lots of time and energy to give to the pets in our care. 

Drop off and pick up times ideally will be between 8.30am- 5pm, but we can be flexible about this. 

4. Will you care for two pets?

Yes! For an extra charge (see prices) we are happy to host day care and overnights for two pets. 

5. Can we meet you first? 

Absolutely! We will meet with you and your pet for an initial intro/play/walk, to see if we are the right fit. We can also arrange a second follow-up, if required/preferred before booking. 

Please do reach out if you wanted to find out any more or chat further - we'd really love to hear from you!
