Pet and house sitting availability!

Rachael from Remuera

Hi neighbours,

My name is Rachael and my partner Aneta and I are available to pet/house sit.

Here is a little info about us:

My name is Aneta. I am 28 years old and I am a vet nurse at Veterinary Specialists Aotearoa. I have been a vet nurse for over 5 years now. In my free time I love spending time with family and friends and going for walks. I have three animals of my own 2 dogs and a cat, who currently live in Wellington with my parents. I have house/petsit for dogs and cats in the past, especially pets that have recovered from surgery or need daily medications.

I’m Rachael. I am 24 and also work at Veterinary Specialists Aotearoa as a Canine Hydrotherapist. I’ve been at VSA for 2.5 years now and have loved helping rehabilitate dogs in need. I currently have a cat of my own, and a golden retriever I co-own with my sister. I have also previously worked for a cat minding company taking care of feline friends while owners were on holiday.

We have plans to be away in Europe from August to October 2023, but are available before and after this period.

If you are looking for someone to take care of your home and/or furry friends feel free to get in touch!

Flick us a message if you have any questions or would like some references.

Thanks,

Aneta and Rachael

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️

The Team from SPCA New Zealand

It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:

👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️

Worst Xmas ever?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

There's a a lot of planning that goes into Christmas day and sometimes things just don't go to plan. But it can be a good thing - a family mishap or hilarious memory that you can laugh about in Christmases to come.

Whether you burnt the dinner or were stranded at an airport...
