Have you ever wondered what massage can do for your dog?

Meet Charlotte, her story starts with her wonderful family adopting her from a rescue shelter in Singapore when she was roughly 4 years old, after living in the streets. She was then flown to London to live with her family who have since come back home to New Zealand. She is one well travelled dog (more so than me) and well and truly landed on her paws when her parents rescued her.

Charlotte is estimated to be around 12-13 years old and with the first few years of her life being a little rough, she has a few mobility issues that have been bothering her in her later years. Her mum started noticing her slowing down and wanted to do something to help her get through her senior life stage.

I was introduced to Charlotte in October 2025. Initially she was very wary of me touching her, so I recommended we start with fortnightly massage sessions to help her be a little bit more comfortable with me.

After a few sessions she began to trust me and allowed a full massage session. She even started seeking massage from her family members as she realised how much she was enjoying our massage sessions.

Fast forward to January with a few massage sessions under our belt and Charlotte has started to enjoy going out on walks again! Something she hasn’t done in a long time.

The results speak for the dogs - with regular massage therapy to help relieve sore tired muscles, dogs can get back to enjoying their lives and living comfortably again.

Behind the scenes day in the life of me!

Ever wondered what my day looks like?

Check out a usual Tuesday for me, 20,000 steps, many kms driven and lots of dogs (I couldn't think of a better way to spend my days).

Cooper and Dixie’s plus one ❤️

I had the absolute pleasure of attending the intimate wedding of Bianca and Josh (Cooper and Dixie’s mum and dad) as the plus one for their fur babies.

Having a small intimate wedding they wanted to keep the stress out of having their paw children attend. With everyone attending already busy with very important jobs.

But they couldn’t have a wedding without Cooper and Dixie, they are both extremely important members of the family too. So I had no hesitation when I was asked if I could bring them along.

Picking them both up in style we made our way out to the beautiful Raglan. I kept them calm and engaged while mum and dad said their vows (some yummy possyum treats helped). Followed by some photos with the help of the squeaky ball.
We then headed down to the beach to get some magical sunset photos along the black sand of Manu Bay.
After the photos were complete I then drove both Cooper and Dixie back to the comforts of their bed at home.

What an absolutely beautiful evening and the beginnings of a very special service for Paws Rewind.

In many years to come these moments and photos of their special day they were able to share with their beloved dogs will become cherished memories and moments they will never forget
Congratulations Bianca and Josh ❤️

Meet Tiki,
She is a Staffordshire bull terrier who I have been walking since May 2025.

When I first met Tiki she had been through quite a few changes and was struggling to figure out how to settle into her new routine.
She was a ball of staffy energy and walks were becoming very challenging for her parents.

Tiki would constantly pull on lead, was reactive towards other dogs and she particularly hated cats!!
Tikis mum did the right thing by getting help from another trainer, however the style of this particular trainer just didn’t work for how Tiki worked. Some dogs just need a different training method.

Having owned staffies myself I understand how they tick, and so Tiki and I got to work!
Admittedly she sure was a challenge initially, but what doesn’t challenge you doesn’t teach you. And it helped me to learn some new skills.

We worked for months on teaching Tiki to walk nicely on lead, to ignore her triggers of other dogs and cats and to learn so rules and boundaries.
Once we had these skills, I was able to introduce Tiki to some new friends- Apa and Momo.
Walking dogs who can have reactive tendencies, with other dogs who are not reactive is a great way for them to learn from others.

Fast forward to today and I am able to walk Tiki alongside four other dogs! She walks fantastic for me on lead and she is less reactive with cats (sometimes this can take a bit longer).

One of my favourite parts of my job is seeing transformations in dogs like Tiki. I am so proud of you Tiki and how far you have come! Such a joy to be a part of your growth.

I’m beyond thrilled to announce this brand new service at Paws Rewind - Your dogs plus one!

I understand that your dog is more than just a pet, they’re family, and including them in your special day is a must.

But it can be tricky - venue logistics, who’s watching them, taking the stress away from your guests... Let me take the leash and take care of all that for you!

I’ll ensure your dog is included in every moment, big or small, so you can focus on enjoying your day. Whether it’s a wedding, engagement photoshoot, or another special occasion, I’ll handle every detail.

If you’re interested in knowing more, send me a message - I’d love to help!

On lead dog training walks to help those dogs who aren't that great at being forced to mix and mingle with large groups of other dogs.

No pressure here, we just walk. We work on being near other dogs without the need to interact.
We work on environmental triggers such as other people, cars, cats, bikes, barking dogs and REAL life situations.
Things that flow on to your reality when out walking.
Things that help you enjoy your walks too!

Sure there's other places to take your dog, where they spend the entire day over exhausting themselves in one spot. Only seeing the same large group of dogs and only seeing the same people. But is that real socialising for your dog?

I will be taking a holiday for the Christmas and New Year break.

Jumping on this trend to show where you can get to and what you can achieve if you take that leap of faith!

Starting Paws Rewind was the best thing I ever did! So grateful for being able to do what I love each and every day.

Meet Sonny,

He is a golden retriever that I have been walking since August.

Sonny is a beautiful boy and his parents have done such a great job setting him up for success in life by taking him through a lot of dog training classes. He is very well behaved and walks nicely on lead.

He just needed a bit of guidance on how to cope with the excitement of being around other dogs. So on lead training walks are perfect for him! I was able to show him how to be around other dogs in a calm manner and that being near other dogs didn’t need to be overwhelming.

As he already had a great background with obedience it didn’t take long before I was able to introduce him to his new buddies - bring in Cooper, Dixie and Molly. Sonny was the perfect addition to this trio and he fit straight in! Being welcomed by all three of them like he had always been there. Creating my golden crew.

I love seeing dogs that can be introduced to other dogs with ease. It’s almost as if they knew he was a good boy and would be no threat to their calm group. I have really enjoyed working with Sonny and look forward to continuing to teach him about being a well rounded dog.

I want to talk about dog walking and walking packs of dogs together.
The number of posts I see on community pages about young teenagers starting dog walking after school honestly scares me!

Everyone who loves dogs and has the ability to walk can be a dog walker right? Wrong!

Dog walking is not just a fun little side hustle, that anyone can do. Walking dogs is a skill and not everyone who picks up a dog leash has it. Just like not everyone who picks up a hammer can be a builder. It takes time, experience and knowledge to become a skilled person in your trade.

I have been working with dogs since 2012 and have a Bachelors Degree in Animal Behaviour, qualified as a Canine Remedial Massage Therapist, and I am Pet First Aid certified. It takes a lot of knowledge to be able to put multiple dogs together on lead and walk them in a pack safely. The things that I see on a daily basis while out walking dogs, makes me nervous thinking about the people that are out there in this industry with no qualifications and no knowledge of how to walk dogs safely.

It takes a lot of time and effort to work with one individual dog to build them up to the point they can comfortably walk in a pack with other strange dogs, and this is exactly what I do. I work one on one with dogs initially focusing on building a relationship with them. Figuring out what makes them tick and working on any issues they may have.
Then I slowly introduce them to another carefully selected dog to teach them how to be around other dogs and be calm with no need to interact. Once they are comfortable I work on placing them into an appropriate pack for that individual dog. This part takes a lot of knowledge of canine behaviour because this part is where it can go very wrong. If you haven’t built up that trust and the dogs you are walking are not under your control, it’s a disaster waiting to happen!

So I wanted to thank you for putting your trust in me to keep your dogs safe, happy and socialised in a controlled manner. You are all willing to invest in your dogs and know that they are worth it!
