Hello! Recently moved in with family in Wellington, and thinking it might be nice to give them a break now and then, so signing up here! I worked my way through college at vet clinics in California, including emergency clinics. Since then I've been pet sitting for dogs and cats with medications or special needs, and fostering for a few puppies. Check out my reviews here or feel free to reach out for direct references.

I work part time and remotely, so there's plenty of time for me to hang out with your pet. I'm happy to follow any procedures you have set up in terms of meal times, number and timing of walks, play sessions, medications -- I do prefer not to take dogs off-leash until I get to know them pretty well, but I'm happy to go for long on-leash hikes, or just let them into your backyard, whatever they need.

Bethany is the best! We highly recommend her if you are looking for someone to give your pets the best care ever, and to take great care of your home. We plan to book her again. Thanks so much Bethany!

Bethany sent regular updates to me about the dogs and how things were going. When I came home everything was clean and tidy. The washing was on the line and dry. The dogs had a lot of fun, I know, because I didn't get the rapturous welcome I usually get. They were expecting Bethany I think. I'm really delighted Bethany could come and house/dog sit for me.

Once again the lovely Bethany took extra special care of our dog Basil and our home, our chooks and our fish. Basil was a few days post dental surgery and Bethany went the extra mile with his care and taking him to a vet appointment. Highly recommended.

Bethany is amazing. Her love and care of our very precious fur babies was over and above. We desperately needed a break, and she took all worry off us so that we were able to have a great holiday. She has incredible integrity, and a truly delightful person.

Look no further than Bethany as your next house sitter. We had the pleasure of having Bethany look after our dog and 2 young cats and cannot recommend her more highly. She was great with our pets, walking our dog twice daily, managing her medication as well as tending to our cats and looking after our house superbly. She was honest and reliable and we greatly appreciated her help. Communication was also awesome. We would have her back in an instant.

Bethany is lovely and a great communicator. Our cats loved her and I felt comfortable leaving them with her. She was diligent in dealing with any issues the cats had and I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you Bethany. 😊
