Hi, I am not currently accepting any new bookings for this year. Thank you for your understanding.
Hi! My name is Ellessa and I am 18 years old. I grew up in Cambridge, Waikato, and moved here this year for university. I have had experience working in Hospitals, and in hospitality, which were my more people-oriented jobs. I have a dog who is back in Cambridge named Luna. She is the one in my profile photo. I have experience with high-energy dogs and am willing to follow your methods to meet your dog's needs. I have previous experience house and pet sitting with a range of animals including dogs, cats, horses, chickens, ducks and even a donkey! At one point I was looking after and walking 3 large dogs together, so I am fairly experienced and comfortable walking multiple dogs. My longest period of house sitting was for 6 weeks, where I had to look after 2 cats, a pig and two horses, for the entire duration. during this time there was a two week period where I was looking after two houses, and three dogs, whom I took on walks every day while ensuring my duties to the other animals were not left unattended. I also had another job pet sitting with a very needy cat, who was lovely and always wanted cuddles. I have also house sat for a weekend for a puppy and a
I would love to be a dog walker, I have always loved dogs and wanted to be around them, they are one of my favourite animals. I enjoy walks of any kind and would be very happy to be able to share that with a dog. Dog walking is also a great way for me to enjoy the outdoors, and I would be very happy to take your dog on nature walks. I can walk your pet for up to two hours and can provide treats for them if you wish. I am able to administer oral medication to pets, but am unable to do injections or offer grooming services. I have some experience in training so if you wish for me to continue with any work you are doing with your pet, I am very happy to follow your lead.
I am currently a first-year student at Victoria University, and so my hours are very flexible. I am free most afternoons and most weekends. I am unfortunately unable to pet sit due to my living in a student hall. However, I would be very willing to hang out with your dog during the day, it may just not be inside! I am based in Wellington Central, but I am willing to go to suburbs 30-45 minutes outside the city if required via public transport as I do not own a car. I am also very happy to house-sit or stay with your pets if that is something you prefer.
There are some dog-friendly areas a 10-20 minute walk from where I Live, and the waterfront walk is also an option. the botanical gardens are about 20 minutes from my home
I offer house sitting and can stay at your house. I will follow your instructions for security measures for your pet and your home. The happiness and comfort of your pet is very important to me. For home visits, I am willing to stay for 1-3 hours and will keep your pet entertained, with whatever you are comfortable with.
While dogs are preferred, I am willing and happy to look after any animal and would be happy to work with you to meet your pet's needs.

Thanks Ellessa for your professional and kind approach. We look forward to leaving Mojo in your care during our holidays.
Ellessa did a fantastic job looking after Albie! She responded promptly, was happy to meet beforehand and was very flexible. I’d highly recommend!
