About Ruby
Hi! My name is Ruby and I am looking for the opportunity to look after animals, in their own homes, while their owners are away. I am 26.
Growing up on a farm, I have always been around animals. I was raised with dogs, cats, chickens, sheep, and cows, so am very comfortable around all kinds of animals - big and small! In addition to this, I have a large amount of experience with dog-walking and dog sitting. I am only comfortable caring for vaccinated animals, and I will only look after pets who are being well cared for in loving, safe homes (regular vet check-ups, appropriate living environment, suitable food and medicine for the animal etc.). I also have experience caring for sick, elderly and injured animals, and I know the signs of an unhappy or unwell animal. With this, I understand basic pet first aid should it be needed in an emergency.
Since moving to Auckland, into an small, pet-free rental, I find myself longing to be around animals. That is my motivation behind this. I am wanting to look after pets in their own home to make sure they have the necessary company and interaction while their owner is out of town.
I'm clean and tidy, respectful, mature, and super caring for all kinds of pets. I'd love to take care of your pet/home if you are going out of town. Flick me a message if you are interested. Thank you!
