I'm a 29 year old woman from Scotland now living in Hataitai, Wellington. I work from home as a part-time copywriter and am looking to utilise my spare time and love of animals by helping you take care of your beloved pets!

I grew up on a farm in the remote islands of Orkney. From a young age, I've helped raise and tend to animals. During my time in New Zealand, I've had the pleasure of Woofing across the North and South Island. I provided live-in housetting and dogsitting for several people around Tauranga, as well as dog walking in Havelock and taking care of chickens and ducks in Alexandra.

I'm available mornings and afternoons during the working week. I'm available once per day on weekends, around late morning - afternoon.

I offer dog walking and sitting, with experience in basic training and administering medication. If you have a preferred area to walk your dog, just let me know. Otherwise I will aim to take your dog to a quiet open area. I live within a short walking distance of parks, forests, beaches and an off-leash dog area. I can walk your dog for up to an hour at a time.

I have some experience with anxious dogs and can discuss this with you to see if I'd be the right fit for your pet.

I offer day home visits for up to 2 hours, but can accept longer periods if discussed in advance. I'm also happy to check on plants and do minor tasks if staying for a longer period of time. I will ensure all door and other opening are secured before leaving your home.

Leaving your pet alone or with strangers can cause anxiety for you and your pet. I want to provide reassurance to you and a comforting environment for your pet, while allowing me to the fulfillment of spending time with and caring for animals.
