Ciao! I am an English speaking New Zealander who has just moved to Italy (and is in the process of learning Italian). I have a degree in Animal Behaviour and Zoology, and worked for a year as a dog handler before moving into being a biology teacher. I have house sat more pets than I can count, and even stayed in a house as a live in dog trainer for a week.  

I have grown up with pets, from dogs and cats to mice, rabbits, and even frogs. I believe it's impossible to decide whether I am a cat or dog person as I love both so much!! Since arriving in Italy I am awaiting a Visa where I can get a full time job, so am currently looking for little odd jobs here and there, and since I no longer have my cat living with me, I figured I'd put my degree to use, AND get to have contact with some pets at the same time! 

Most days my language school finishes at 1pm, so am available anytime after that. I will be available in the afternoons the whole month of October and then back again in January to work at anytime of the day. I am happy to house pets here in my boyfriends apartment, however only small dogs as there isn't much garden space unfortunately. Next year I will be in a large house with lots of indoor/outdoor space.
