My name is Rachael and my partner Aneta and I are available to pet/house sit.
Here is a little info about us:
My name is Aneta. I am 28 years old and I am a vet nurse at Veterinary Specialists Aotearoa. I have been a vet nurse for over 5 years now. In my free time I love spending time with family and friends and going for walks. I have three animals of my own 2 dogs and a cat, who currently live in Wellington with my parents. I have house/petsit for dogs and cats in the past, especially pets that have recovered from surgery or need daily medications.
I’m Rachael. I am 24 and also work at Veterinary Specialists Aotearoa as a Canine Hydrotherapist. I’ve been at VSA for 2.5 years now and have loved helping rehabilitate dogs in need. I currently have a cat of my own, and a golden retriever I co-own with my sister. I have also previously worked for a cat minding company taking care of feline friends while owners were on holiday.
We have plans to be away in Europe from August to October 2023, but are available before and after this period.
If you are looking for someone to take care of your home and/or furry friends feel free to get in touch!
Flick us a message if you have any questions or would like some references.
Thanks,
Aneta and Rachael

What are the best Treatments for cedar?
Treatments for cedar wood can be broadly placed into three groups: opaque, semi-transparent, transparent or untreated.
Cedar wood is pitch and resin-free, which means that finishes are held very well by the wood as long as they are applied before the weathering process has begun.
Generally, opaque treatments (like paints and solid-colour stains) offer higher protection at the expense of obscuring more of the wood’s natural appearance.
Treatments that are more transparent — like natural stains and water-repellent preservatives — usually offer more modest protection from the elements, but retain a greater amount of the timber’s natural beauty.
1. Opaque or solid-colour
A thorough coating or two of acrylic-based paint is by far the most protective of the finishes on offer. It will shield the timber from moisture and weathering, but will completely conceal the wood’s colour and grain — so make sure to choose a wood paint of your desired colour.
These are also solid-colour stain finishes, which provide an opaque finish whilst retaining some of the original texture. They offer very strong protection against the elements.
Paints and solid-colour finishes allow you to take full control of appearance, adding a bit of excitement, colour or charm to a finished cedar project — but they’re not for the indecisive!
2. Semi-transparent stains
If you’re not interested in an opaque finish, there are still many ways to keep your Cedar looking natural, whilst keeping it well-shielded. For this, a semi-transparent stain might be the ticket.
Depending on the product chosen, semi-transparent stains still offer up some interesting, subtle changes to the wood’s colour, pronouncing grains and knots — as well as affording great protection. Semi-transparent finishes can be oil-based or natural.
Oil-based protection penetrates deeper into the wood and usually provides a more drastic change of colour, giving a greater deal of protection from the elements.
Natural, water-based protection doesn't penetrate as deeply but still affords a good deal of protection, containing fungicides that inhibit the growth of mildew. They’re seen as more environmentally friendly.
There are many types of semi-transparent stains on the market.
Resene Woodsman Wood Oil Stain or Dryden Wood Oil Stain is a good example of a powerful, oil-based protection for cedar wood against weather and UV, available in a range of tints from virtually clear to charcoal. Whilst concealing some of the natural colours, a well-chosen finish like this can enhance the grain of your cedar.
A natural, water-based cedar wood stain — like Resene Woodsman waterborne Wood Oil Stain — will also keep the timber in good condition whilst providing a beautiful finish. A good oil or water-based protection typically lasts for 2 years up to first maintenance.
3. Transparent preservatives and oils
For a transparent finish with some modest protection, consider a coat of water-repellent preservative, or a bleaching oil. There are a range of products on the market.
Although these don’t provide good UV protection, this sort of cedar wood preservative will keep the wood’s warm tones for longer.
Bear in mind that, over time, the cedar will still weather to a grey colour, although this will happen more slowly and you’ll retain the wood’s beautiful, natural tones and patina.

We asked, listened, and collaborated directly with farmers in the making of this gear. We tested and re-tested in on-farm environments. We re-engineered what farming workwear can be with your needs front of mind. We brought our decades of experience creating world-class performance gear. Add to that a legacy of Kiwi innovation, a challenger spirit and a practical attitude that’s been part of Line 7 since we started back in 1963.
Every detail has been reviewed and refined – without overlooking the obvious. Breathable, flexible, functional and comfortable, while still being supremely durable and waterproof. Made to fit farmers of all shapes and sizes, with a dedicated range for women. Built to last, and last a bit longer still, with an included repair kit that means you can fix it up quickly yourself.
Now take it out there, try it on and put it to the test. Wear it out and wear it again. We’re pretty damn confident you won’t be disappointed.
