Going on holiday? We can help!
Hello! We are a small team of house-sitters who are here to provide you with the peace of mind that your pets and property maintain well looked after while you are away.
We are made up of one couple and one best friend, ages 24-28. We find it works great as a trio when bookings overlap or when more than one house needs our services. On occasion we may all be present in one house together but are very utility conscious and respectful in our usage. We are all non-smokers and non-partiers. We all believe in keeping fit and enjoy the outdoors so your animals can remain well exercised if needed so. We can ensure you that your home remains neat and tidy for the entire duration of our stay. Our past sits have included looking after pets, cars, plants, and even just the property.
Who we are:
Carl, 28. Full time builder, great handyman, Olympic sailor, outdoor enthusiast
Desiree, 24. Full time educator 4d/w, adores pets, lover of the outdoors, enjoys long walks
Bianca, 25. Full time shift work receptionist, great with pets, loves long walks and the beach
Our service:
We provide our services FREE of charge as we believe it is a fair exchange for accommodation. Please feel free to message me with enquires and we will be happy to talk further. We are happy to provide police clearances and references for your extra peace of mind. All the best and we look forward to hearing from you!
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)
.
