Let your dog join the fun and make new friends on my popular dog adventures!
Here is a testimonial from a happy customer!
"Some people get a cleaner when they work long hours, but I knew I would feel most guilty about my dog Asha being lonely & under exercised. So we called Charles & now everyone is happy. Asha plays with her friends & gets well tired out in her big walks so she doesn't dig holes in the back yard!! Charles comes highly recommended from Asha & me." Shelly
Message me for more details. I look forward to hearing from you :)

I’m 21 years old, searching for a nannying job in the neighbourhood. I’m great with kids and have lots of experience in looking after children. My most current work was for a family in St Martins, picking up two young boys from St martins school and looking after them until 4.30 during the weekdays.

I live locally in St Martins and I’m available weekdays. I’d be happy to give references or my CV if needed. Could look after kids in there own home or take them on some local activities!

I'm available all day on Mondays (until 4.30) and Wednesdays (until 5), and after school 3pm until 5pm on Tuesdays and Fridays. These time constrains are due to my uni timetable this year. I'd also be available for weekend nannying, and during school holidays.
I’m affordable at $18.50 p/h (might be a tad more if you have more children). Please contact me about any and all work that might be suitable!

Contact me at; francescawarne@gmail.com
Or flick me a text at; 0274375638

Looking forward to hearing from you!
Frankie :)

But in recent days the West Coast and Southland have experienced heavy rains, flooding, evacuations and closed roads. Our thoughts are with affected.

Our skies have been coloured by smoke blown over from the Australian bushfires, meanwhile Wellingtonians are just stoked if they get to see the sun.

How has your summer been?

Christchurch is New Zealand's second city, deal with it

Anna Williams Reporter from The Press

There's an enduring belief that Wellington is our second-largest city. We must dispel that myth, reporter Charlie Mitchell says.
Do you think Christchurch should officially be named as New Zealand's second city or should Wellington retain its title?
