Kia Ora my name is Stella McCabe and I am currently studying to become a paramedic at AUT. I am responsible and mature and have lots of animal experience. I have recently moved to Auckland and have had to leave my beloved family pets so am hoping to be able to help look after your beloved pets. I have 6 dogs and 4 cats at home as well as birds. I have a range of experience looking after dogs of different sizes from Great Danes to smaller breeds. I have also looked after cats and have grown up with all sorts of animals throughout my life. 

I have a 15 year old dog at home so I am use to looking after old dogs. I also love going for long walks and exploring new places and would love a companion to take with me. Because of my love of exercise I can look after dogs with a range of exercise needs. 

The services I am able to provide for you include dog walking, home visits, and pet sitting at the owners home.

My general dog walk will last for about 1 hour and I can take up to 3 dogs. However I could adjust the time depending on the dog(s) and the specific needs. When walking your dog I will also check if there are any places that you usually take your dog(s) for walks, if not then I will walk the dog(s) in areas around the owners home. 

During my home visits I am able to stay up to 1 hour with my full attention on the pets, I am able to stay at your home for up to 3 hours but I will need to do some of my uni work that is online. I am also able to do up to 2 home vists a day depending on the distance you are from my home. During my home vists I am able to help out with certain things like watering the plants and bringing in the mail. 

When it comes to pet sitting at the owners home I am reasonably flexible about how long I can stay. I only need to go into my university campus 2 to 3 days a week and am able to do the rest online, this allows me to be a lot more flexible. I can generally stay at the owners home for up to 1 and a half weeks, however this could be negotiated. 

With all of my services I am normally available any time on a Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday. However on a Wednesday and a Friday I am only available at nights. 

During my time with your pets I will keep them company and help keep them entertained. I can help with basic training and giving your pet certain medication if needed. 

Thank you for taking the time to read a bit about me and my love for animals.
