Kia ora! I've just moved from NZ to the UK and had to leave our little ex rescue cat behind, so looking to fill the furry void and help out at the same time. I'm a University trained animal behaviourist, and have about 10 years experience housesitting, pet sitting, and dog walking (on an NZ Pawshake account). I also volunteered at a dog pound training the puppies to make them more adoptable (as well as bits of other training I've done with my cats in the past), and have experience with observational studies of captive animals while volunteering at a zoo in NZ. I'm happy to offer some of these training services, which will involve "shaping " and clicker training basic commands (if possible). 

Ive also volunteered at the SPCA socialising feral and stray cats. I've grown up animals my whole life, especially with big dogs (my parents love rotties!), cats, and even ducklings - so am pretty comfortable around a range of animals, and definitely prefer them being around over not!

I'm currently working as a project manager at a renewable energy developer but am able to work from home often, so can spend plenty of time with your fur babes (please let me know in your message what you need and I can try and be as flexible as possible!). I'm happy to administer oral medications, and be trained (by you) to administer injections if required. I will look after a max of 2 dogs at a time, but will be flexible of number of additional and max cats (although also feel free to reach out about other circumstances and I may be able to make it work). At the moment if I am house sitting I can offer 2 big dog walks as well per day as well as others for toilet breaks. Feel free to reach out if there's any other queries, I'm happy to be adaptable and flexible where I can
