Jake

I am currently a third year Law and Business student at the University of Waikato. I grew up in rural NZ and have always had a passion for all animals.

In 2018 I moved to Thailand with the intentions of volunteering at a street dog rescue and rehabilitation centre for 8 weeks. I ended up loving it so much, I was asked to join the team officially, and ended up living in Hua Hin for nearly a year.

My responsibilities ranged from basic animal welfare of cats and dogs, such as grooming and feeding, educating the locals on the importance of desexing and even assisting in veterinarian operations as a vet nurse.

My biggest highlights from this experience were the daily feeding runs to the stray packs around our local temples, and of course, the daily beach walks for all the dogs in our care.

Here I learned invaluable skills and grew my knowledge in animal etiquette and care.

I am more than happy to have a sleep over with your babies, check in on them throughout the day, or take them on a lovely walk. If their needs require a more relaxed environment or energetic runs to keep fit, i am happy to accommodate both.
