We're still looking for a loving home for our dog Nala.

Unfortunately 2 hopeful homes have just fallen through, so we're sending this out again.
Please pass on to anyone who may be interested?
Many thanks, Andi.

Some of you may have read our previous notice weeks ago trying to rehouse our dog Nala. After finding what we thought was the perfect new home for her we discovered instantly she is not suited to be with small children, her behaviour became unpredictable, she’s just not used to loud noise and quick movements of small children, so we’re trying again. Sadly we need to rehome our dog Nala. Due to suddenly having too move house we are unable to take Nala with us
. Nala is a 2.5 year old Staffie X Pitbull she is de-sexed with up to date vaccinations. Our baby Nala is a sweet, gentle natured Girl who is toilet trained and knows all her basic commands around the house however, she tends to have her ears painted on when she gets outside. Nala can be quite timid/nervous around other dogs but with monitored introduction she’d be happy to make friends. Nala is very playful and friendly and loves attention. We’ve discovered that Nala is not good around small, young children and is better suited to older children and adults. Nala is a bit of an escape artist, left alone she can jump a 7ft+ fence. Nala’s always excited to see people and tends to jump up on people to greet them and she’s incredibly strong. She needs a firm hand. She needs a lot of exercise and a good off lead run. Nala is a really quiet indoor dog, a great companion who’s really happy to just hang and be a couch potato.

Many thanks, Andi

Experienced Pet & House Sitter Available | 28 Jan – 22 Feb 2026

Sabine from Orakei

Hi everyone, due to a cancellation I've had a rare gap in my pet-sitting calendar open up, and would love to fill it with more pet cuddles. I am currently sitting in St Heliers and have lived in this community for many years before starting my house sitting journey, so would love to spend more time here.

A little about me:
- I’ve been a full-time house and pet sitter for 6 years, with all 5-star reviews
- I have fostered over 450 cats and kittens with the Lonely Miaow Association, and grew up on a lifestyle block with large dogs, cats, farm animals and small pets, so I’m confident with animals of all kinds (including those needing medication or extra care). I am also studying after-hours towards a Level 3 degree in Animal Care.
- I work from home 3-4 days a week (and spend the other 1-2 days as marketing manager in SPCA's Hobsonville Centre) so have plenty of time to spend with your precious pets
- As a homeowner myself, I know how important it is to feel your place and pets are in safe hands.
- This is a free sit!

If you’d like to see reviews or photos from past sits, you are welcome to check out my page here: www.facebook.com...

Happy to answer any questions. Please message me to discuss your petsitting needs.
