Why you should consider me :)

Over the years, I’ve looked after cousins, family friends kids, and neighbour’s children. This taught me not just the basics of childcare, but also patience, responsibility as well as how to create a warm and safe environment. I’m very mindful of routines, safety guide, clear communication which I know will be the best for the children as well as for me. I make sure to keep parents updated so they always feel connected and reassured. Babysitting has never been a job for me but something I’ve grown up with and genuinely love doing. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids, whether it may be helping with homework, preparing snacks, playing games or simply listening to their stories. I’m excited for the opportunity to support another family and provide reliable, caring help whenever needed.

An experienced pet sitter/walker from Christchurch. If you looking for someone reliable to take care of your pets while you short on time or leaving for some time, I can be there for you. Good with pretty much every pet, I’m ok to work with rescued animals or animals with problems, please tell me in advance if your pet need just a little bit more love and patience, we can deal with it (if you promise they won’t eat me, my cats need me). Same as you free to ask my id, I may also want to see your pets vaccinations passport. I have my pets and I work with other animals, I want your pet and all other pets to be safe and healthy. If you need the pet/home check, including feeding and cleaning while you are not at home, I would prefer to sign a contract for the period of time you want me to be there. It will make everyone safe and clear, all the duties will be there as well. For the dog walking, I would love to do that for you. Small dogs are as welcome same as big dogs, we don’t discriminate here. I’m strong enough to hold your big pup, if they still don’t like the words “no, no, no, please, we can’t go there”. The walk may include some running and toy play if your dog likes so. But poop bags are on you. We can make it a little bit cheaper, if it’s 3 or more walks weekly. And I’m sorry, I only work after 9.30 am. Meet and greet are charge free, but if you would like me to start right ahead it will be charged. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions, will be happy to meet you and your pet!

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Dog Walker

Follow these handy tips for hiring a dog walker so you know your pup is in safe, reliable hands.

1. Check experience

Look for walkers who have worked with dogs of similar size, breed, and temperament.

2. Verify credentials

Ask about pet first aid/CPR certification and whether they’re insured and bonded.

3. Request references

Speak to past or current clients for honest feedback.

4. Meet in person

Arrange a meet-and-greet to see how your dog responds to them.

5. Discuss routines

Ensure they can stick to your dog’s feeding, walking, and medication schedule.

6. Ask about group walks

Clarify whether they walk multiple dogs at once or provide solo walks.

7. Check reliability

Confirm their backup plan in case they’re sick or unavailable.

8. Look for communication

Choose someone who provides updates, photos, or reports after walks.

9. Test with a trial walk

Start with a short session to assess how your dog and the walker get along.

10. Clarify policies

Go over payment, cancellations, keys/access to your home, and emergency procedures.
