Vet or vet nurse to House-sit with Pets
Hi All, we have a house in Orakei and are going on two trips this year. We have three smallish dogs and a cat.
One of the dogs is diabetic requiring daily insulin and the cat is 17 years old and, although not in pain, may not be with us for too much longer.
Ideally we're looking for a couple, one of whom is a vet or vet nurse, to live-in and look after these pets while we are away.
Rather than write a book at this point, please get in touch with us and we'll see if we can work something out.
Many thanks Rgds Peter
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?
