Need a house sitter anytime between June and December 2023?
If you prefer to have someone look after your cat 'in-house' and take good care of your home while you're away, I can help. If you don't have any pets but prefer your home looks lived-in, I can help with that too.
Happy to look after your dog although typically, owners prefer someone home during the day but if that’s not an issue, we can talk about that.
I'm currently house sitting and looking after a cat in St Heliers but available from 2 June.
ABOUT ME
I’m nearing retirement and planning my VanLife adventures. I will fit-out my own van and travel around NZ, finish hiking the rest of the great walks, riding and bike packing around our stunning country.
I currently work full time as a Documentation Specialist for a software company Monday to Friday in the Auckland CBD and ride to work most days. I have the option to work from home one day per week.
I do gardening, mow lawns, pull weeds…whatever is required to keep your home looking ‘loved and lived in’.
DURATION
Ideally, at least 4 weeks to as long as required. But if you’re away a bit short of that time, please ask me.
I'm available from 2 June to 31 December 2023.
Happy to pay for water, power and internet usage.
Please reply to this post or just send me a personal message via Messenger or Facebook - I'm very easy to find.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
