Hey there!

I'm Taylah, a 21 year-old student set to graduate with a Bachelor of Science at The University of Auckland at the end of 2024. I have been around animals for majority of my life, growing up with a cat and a dog in my family home and dedicating much of time in my teenage years to riding and caring for horses. I currently own and look after my pony Sharki, which requires daily care and feeding (including giving medicine). 

Although I am new to advertising my services on Pawshake, I have experience pet-sitting and house-sitting for people through word of mouth and the facebook community page for my local area. 

My previous pet-sitting experience consists of caring for a wide variety of animals including dogs (small and large), cats, horses, chickens, pigs, lambs, sheep, fish and guinea pigs. Some of these are displayed in my photo gallery. I'm also happy to keep up with general house maintenance such as plant watering and house chores and these can be flexible based on your needs. I am happy to provide references on request.

I currently work Sundays at a local cafe and the rest of my week typically involves studying from home, so you can be assured I have flexibility with my schedule and the capabilities to take the best care of your pets. I am also happy to meet with you and your pet prior to booking.

Being based in Waimauku, I am happy to house-sit and pet-sit anywhere in Waimauku, Muriwai, Helensville, Kumeu, Riverhead, Coatesville & Taupaki, with flexibility to extend to other areas in the case of longer duration stays.

Please don't hesitate to reach out, I am more than happy to answer any questions you might have and discuss specific availability.

I look forward to hearing from you!
