About Emily

Hi, I'm Emily. I'm here because I love animals. Big, small, bold, shy, cheeky, fuzzy and fluffy and everything in between. Life is better with pets, and they deserve the best from us. 

A bit about me: I grew up with a succession of beautiful golden retrievers. So I was destined to always love dogs! I'm an experienced dog walker and dog sitter, and volunteered with my late golden Doug as a St John's Therapy Pet volunteer at Starship Hospital. I also have the sweetest little tabby cat called Kimchi. I adore cats too!

🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾

Here’s what I offer: 

🐾 I provide structured walks or runs lasting 30 minutes to an hour, at a pace that suits your dog.

🐾 For those who need someone to check in on their pet, I offer home visits. I’ll spend 30 to 45 minutes providing fresh water, food, playtime, and lots of attention.

🐾 I can also take your dog somewhere further than local - a beach swim perhaps! or provide a taxi service to the vet or groomers. 

🐾 I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages. If there's particular training or commands you'd like us to work on in our time together, we can do that!

🐾 Upon request, I can house sit at yours when you're out of town (I have ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ reviews on Kiwi Housesitters!) Just let me know what you're needing and we can iron out the details. 

--------

I'm based in Central Auckland and available flexibly (I work as a freelance writer from home which allows me lots of freedom!) Reach out with any questions or let me know what you're looking for, and I’ll respond as quickly as possible. 

Pets are such a gift, they have so much to teach us about love and life. I've loved and cared for every pet I've met like they're my own - I don't know any other way!  

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Emily 🐶🐱💛
