Well, Riley is 1 year old now! What an amazing year. She is living her best life at the nursery. Muddy bogs are regularly waded in, weka are on notice, and beds are shared with the cats. Here’s a photo I took last night after her grooming with Griffin Grooming

I have been very busy for the past year pet-sitting your lovely fur-babies :) I am really enjoying my time meeting you and your families. Thank you for all of your support!

To be sure that Westport Pet-sitting is always ready and available for you, I have enlisted the help of Sharna. Some of you may already know Sharna and you will also know that she has a wealth of experience looking after our furry friends. As proof, here is a photo of her with her and her and her sisters dogs.

So please, do not hesitate in contacting me to arrange pet-sitting for your cat, dog, hen, plant... Sharna and I will be pleased to help!
If you forget how to get in touch, Buller Vets has a flyer at their clinic.

Hello, I’d like to introduce our newest family member Riley our 16 week old puppy. She is a total darling, learning the ropes very quickly. She great at ‘go toilet’, sit-stay, and my favourite ‘find dad’!

She’s doubled in weight since we got her and can demolish a chicken paste chew in 5 minutes. Continuous Employee of the Month at my workplace 😆 loved by all those who meet her. She hopes to meet you soon now that she’s had all her vaccinations ♥️

Thanks to Sarah Shaw and Tikka Tots for making this happen. I thought I’d be getting a retired farm dog but this is what the universe sent me instead!

I must confess, I have an obese ginger cat. Her name is Clementine. She was tubby before we got her as a rescue cat and since then she has been determined to become both orange in colour and round - just like the fruit. All efforts to reduce her size have been unsuccessful. However, she is nowhere as large as the cat in this article.

Tomcat "Kroshik" weighs 17 kilos. That's why he was put on a diet at the animal shelter. While trying to escape from there, the animal got into an awkward situation.

I am happy to walk your dog, but I will make a commitment to you that I will only walk your dog(s). I won’t take a pack out! Dogs can be unpredictable and my motto is better safe than sorry.

Professional dog walkers are nervous about city council moves to limit the number of dogs a person can be in charge of in public.
