I am 12 years old and I LOVE animals. Over the Christmas I would like to look after your pets. I am reliable, honest, organized and have experience with pets since I have my own rats I look after every day. I can feed and play with your pet so it won't be lonely. I will clean their cage (if they have one). I can also walk your dog.
I can look after cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and basically any pet, of course with my mum's or dad's supervision, but I'll mostly do the work.

"I have a lady in my neighbourhood who is keen to track down a Helen Matherson (maiden name) who once lived in the Wanaka region.
The lady from my neighbourhood is arranging a reunion of those who worked at the Pompolona Lodge on the Milford Track, in the Fiordland National Park back in the 1980s.
The Pompolona Lodge Staff Reunion is taking place in January 2018 and I believe most people have been located, except this one person - so the search is on for Helen Matherson!"
Thanks.
Terrie - Kensington Lead
Hopefully Helen, a family member or someone who knows the Matherson family may see this and make contact? Contact can be made to a Lead who can then pass it on to Terrie - (Kensington Lead)
