Part-time Dog Walker Position Available
Hi!
We have not long moved up from Wellington to be closer to family and to franchise our dog walking business here (www.houndhiking.com). We are looking for a part time dog walker to help take 3-4 hikes a week regularly for us. Each hike is 1-1.5 hours long and we go to a variety of off leash hikes as far out as Ocean Beach so the hikes take 3-4 hours when including driving to collect and drop dogs off (from all over Hawkes Bay). Start time is 8:30/9am (days flexible at this stage, but Monday-Friday). Dog confidence is important, as well as the ability to take great photos of the dogs (see photos below). The hounds are off leash the whole hike and we have a maximum of 7 hounds at a time. We provide full training plus a pet first aid course before you take hikes yourself. A full drivers license is a must. We provide the van to use but you will need to make your way & back to Hastings to collect it. Each hike is a fixed rate of $70 per hike and you'll be working as a contractor to us. If this sounds like you, or someone you know, please send me a message with some info of your experience with dogs and photography. Please only apply if you are looking for part time work not full time.
Thanks! Tabitha

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
