About Vic

Kia ora and hello!

I am available for dog walking, dog/cat sitting, visiting people's homes to feed/check on pets if you're away, and at times may be able to house sit.

I'm Vic, in my late-twenties. After working quite full-time as a mental health nurse over the last few years - I feel it's time to get back to spending more time with animals. So I thought I would reconnect with Pawshake, a service I've been using to walk dogs, house-sit, and look after all sorts of animals/pets since 2015 (my last profile was made in NZ which I can link you to for references).

I have experience with lots of different dog breeds, most of which have been rescue dogs, so have been involved in their training and supporting them to feel less anxious. I have also had the fortunate opportunity to look after the same dogs for up to two years at a time, so have made some wonderful dog and human friends through that.

As I am currently living in a small space and a cat of my own, I can only be offering dog walking, house sitting and services at people's homes. I plan on doing some larger day walks and am happy to bring dog friends along with me if your pup needs something a bit more tiring!

I'm looking forward to meeting you and your furry friends :)

Vic looked after our cocker spaniel Otto for the evening - Vic was friendly and Otto liked her too! Thank you :)

I had the real pleasure of having Vic as my cat sitter for my beloved cat Nonya. I was quite anxious as I was new to the area and needed a cat sittier for 2 weeks. Vic and I had a meet & greet a couple of weeks before to make sure the fit was right, and I learned about her love for animals and that she had a cat of her own. During my time away I received great communication including photos, videos and how my little friend was getting on. The house was just as I left it and Vic took my bins out and replenished food supplies for my cat (as I was running low). For 2 visits a day I had great piece of mind. I would certainly recommend Vic to others to look after their pets. Thank you.

Skills

Specific Skills

I speak English
+5 years of experience
Familiar with dog training techniques
As mentioned above - I have a good amount of experience working with animals and have been walking all sorts of dogs for years (which have mainly been rescue dogs). I am able to give medications, look after young animals, as well as old. I am fairly fit and going on multiple walks a day is not a problem, although if your dog gets on with other dogs then I will ask you if it is okay to walk dogs together (especially if you live in a similar area to another pawshaker/client).
