Simone is also committed to learning all she can about dog behaviour, so that she can best provide for the dogs in her care, and assist their owners when problems arise. As you can see she has a terribly difficult job, with little joy or recognition (but really!)

Zoe has a great love of animals. Her family consists of 4 cats, 3 dogs, 2 horses and a man (Brendon). In her spare time she loves to ride horses, play with the dogs and at night have a cuddle on the couch with the cats oh and Brendon too!

"I absolutely love having a job where I care for animals. My future will hopefully involve owning my own hunk of dirt where all my babies can enjoy the outdoors and not need to be packed and moved again! I have been around the lower north island stating in Wellington then to Palmy to Opunake to Marton to Stratford and back to the Manawatu in search of the perfect job and lifestyle."

Anjuli has recently completed her diploma of veterinary nursing at Ucol and has been working at Tolly farm since March 2009. She is very animal oriented and has lots of her own including a dog, 2 cats, chinchilla, 2 turtles, chickens, cows and sheep. When she is not working here she teaches a pet care class at Ucol. In her spare time she loves to go hiking and hand out with her friends, family and pets.

At Christmas we pull out all the stops and include the whole family, brother Shaun, Mum Vivienne, and Dad Ewen. We assure you we wont look this good when you drop off your pets for your Christmas stay, but on this particular day we scrubbed up ok. And don't we look so young.........
