House Sitter Available

Tania from Central Hawkes Bay District

Are you heading away and still to arrange the care of your pets? I offer house & pet sitting services that alleviate your stress of leaving your fur baby's in a kennel or cattery. You'll return home to much loved and happy well-adjusted pets.

Tania here from www.facebook.com... where I've been serving families in NZ and around the world full time as their sitter since 2011.

I've just moved into the region and calling the CHB my 'home base' and happy to make myself available to serve your holiday getaways with taking care of your pets.

Cost: $20/day - for the 1st 3 weeks, then negotiable thereafter for longer requests.

Feel free to look me up on my FB housesitting page for references, photos, & videos - you'll find me relaxed, warm and friendly and your pets loved and smooched often! Not to mention plants watered and general security of having someone around.

I work from 'home' as an illustrator so your pets will have plenty of time hanging out with a human. I'm a non-smoker and a bit of a teetotaler with a cleared police check, should you require extra assurance.

Book me today!

tania@drawerfullofgiants.com and you'd also be welcome to visit my business website to know more about me www.drawerfullofgiants.com...

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
